- Always use RGB (sRGB) images
- Get the biggest images possible (pixel dimensions(
- Tools will take care of sizing down images for non interactive content
- If inserting pdfs use non-flattened PDF 1.4 or later to avoid unwanted white lines
- Remember that a 6-pixel scroll bar crops the right edge of the article layout. Consider adding a guide or object on the master page to mark this area.
- Using the right file structure from the begiinign will save you time — Adobe page

By now you should have the following project components:
- Content (text, images, video, links, references)
- A page plan (flat plan)
- A grid
- A typographic hierarchy
- Navigation style
- A defined visual style
These components might not be complete (and may be in a state of flux) but you should be using them in your project.
