Speedy Output

If you regularly output your InDesign documents to specific printers or job types, you probably already know how print and PDF presets automate the process to save you time. These presets contain all the proper output settings that you either define yourself (via File > Print Presets > Define and File > Adobe PDF Presets > Define) or get from another source, such as a print shop or coworker.

But here's the power-user tip: Hold down the Shift key when you select a preset. If the output is PDF, InDesign will skip the PDF options dialog. But if it's a print preset, InDesign skips everything-paper just flies out of the printer!
