Preparing stories for the web

The Web Editor will open your InDesign file and copy content to the web after page editors finish their layouts. Most content, will be put on our website. Please make sure you follow these steps to ensure that your page’s content is uploaded correctly.

  • Save your images and InDesign files, and PDFs in an easy-to-find location on the server, ideally in the correct issue folder.
  • Before you greyscale any images, always make a copy. This is super important. We want to use color versions of images on the web.
  • Make sure a JPG version of color photos used in layouts is available on the server. Our web software can’t read Photoshop files or RAW files. Please save an additional copy if the original is in a format other than JPG.
  • Let the Web Editor know if there is anything that should be handled in a different manner, or if you have any ideas.

If you have any questions about this process, or about the website in general, please contact the Web Editor.

Thanks for your help!
