I laid out a 5x7 flyer in Photoshop and saved as 300dpi tiffs. I then brought the tiffs into indesign. All the text was rasterized and saved as part of the graphic.
I guess I was just being lazy, but will reversed out(white on black background) body copy be readable when process printed?

how big is the type and what typeface? Also, is the black a rich black (4-color) or just black?

just put the pdf in the link to see it. I think it will be fine. As long as the printer hits registration.

I guess you're going for a standard run of digital prints? You should be fine - the worst you can expect is a little browning around the record groove and perhaps some separation issues on the thinner lines in the front side logo, but nothing dramatic.
imo, of course - I'm probably just speaking out of the more idiotic end of my arse.

Fuck it I just spent 10 whole minutes and laid out the type in ID. Don't want to get any shit so....
Thanks though =)
