Adobe Indesign and Adobe Photoshop will work together nicely (especially CS3). They are just totally different programs used for different purposes. Photoshop is generally used for raster grapics/photos/effects; whereas Indesign is generally used for layout.
If you would like to use a Photoshop file within Indesign, then you need to
1. create a new document in Indesign (File-%26gt;New)
2. Place the PSD into that document (File-%26gt;Place)
3. with in the Place Document dialog box you'll have to navigate to the desired PSD file and select it, please note the two check boxes at the bottom of the dialog box. It would be a good idea to check the ';Show Import Options'; box. This will allow you to set the initial layer transparency within Indesign. You can always change these settings in Indesign by going to Object-%26gt;Object Layer Options.
Good luck!How come adobe photoshop and indesign wont work properly together?
You cannot use the File:Open command to get Photoshop files into InDesign, you must make a New document and then drag-drop your PS file into it or use the File:Place command. Do that, and you'll find that PS and ID play superbly well together!
Adobe is a proprietary software so it doesn't play nice when you try to use other applications. You might be able to take a screenprint in Adobe and paste it into cs3 to use it. That's the only thing I can think of unless you save your work to a different, more general file type in Adobe. Good luck!
