Export pages in EPS format

Use the Export command to export InDesign pages in EPS format, which you can import into another program. If you
export multiple pages, each page is exported as a separate file with a number appended to the end of the filename. For
example, if you export pages 3, 6, and 12, and specify the filename News.eps, InDesign will create three files named
News_3.eps, News_6.eps, and News_12.eps.

If you want to open InDesign pages in Illustrator or Adobe Photoshop, export pages as PDF or EPS files.

> Export.

2 Specify a location and a filename. Be sure to include the EPS extension.

OS), choose EPS, and click Save.
