"printing" PDFs from Adobe InDesign
I'm sitting in my Media Design class and the instructor and I would like to use the print system to save a PDF like everywhere else in OSX. Has this been locked out of InDesign? Is it inherently a problem for large format stuff? Is it just that we've missed something? Anyone else encounter this? Thanks for looking.

To make a PDF from InDesign, goto FILE>EXPORT> make sure PDF is selected at the bottom and enter the name you'd like to call it. You will then be taken to a control panel to set the compression setting etc.
If you just want to do a quicky, then goto FILE>PDF export presets, and select the type of PDF you'd like to use.
