PDF color match/Uploading InDesign file
I design the magazine in photoshop, import to indesign in order to export it as multi page spread. I have no color issues when I go from photoshop to indesign. I've trouble shooted photoshop and indesign anyway, yet whenever I export the zine as a pdf, the colors mute noticeably. This concerns me because I use artwork for the magazine. Is it possible to upload the files on Magcloud as an indesign file so I can stay true to the colors?

Inappropriate?When exporting your PDF from InDesign, if you select "No Color Conversion" and "Include Tagged Source Profiles" from the Output -> Color section of the Export dialog box, it should retain all of the color information in order to print accurately through MagCloud. If the PDF was exported without including tagged source profiles, and it contains images in AdobeRGB98, they will appear muted in the PDF compared to how they look in Photoshop or InDesign. Another possible reason that the PDF does not look good on screen is that Adobe Reader might not be making use of your monitor ICC profile when displaying the PDF on screen.
Hopefully, this will help with your color issues. Go ahead and order a proof of your magazine and see how it turns out.
