Transparency in InDesign showing through

[VividMary]

I createdseveral images ofphotos within circles and made the outside of the circles transparent. (in Photoshop, saved as .psd files)

When I place them in an Indesignfile with a solid background, the imagesseem transparent onscreen but print out with definite boundaries. I set the transparency flattener to high resolution to see if that made a difference, but it didn't help.

Any solutions?

try flattening your photoshop files to a .tif file and try that, not to sure if it will fix your problem though. what os are you using, and what version of ps and id?

might be the limitations of your printer

I think you are right about the printer.

Thanks

I have this all the time. Your best bet is to save the transparency file as a psd file and when you know where you are going to use it, open your psd file and add a layer below your other layers as layer one with the background color you're going to use on the webpage.
Then save the whole thing as a .jpg.
That way the transparency color will be the same and you should not be able to see the shadow.
Good Luck!
