I have some questions about preparing the final magazine file for print.
I'm making a magazine in InDesign CC and I need it to make using ISO coated v2 ECI. Every picture in magazine before I place it in layout I converted it in Photoshop from RGB to CMYK (ISO coated v2 ECI), some pictures are .jpg and some are .psd.
After exporting as a final PDF, then I use Acrobat Reader to see in Output Preview the total color area coverage - and here starts problems, because almost in every page (there is about 100 pages) its over the limit - over 300%.
What in this situation would be the most appropriate solution to make a final file correct?

I usually adjust for ink limits at the same time I convert my images to cmyk as part of my colour correcting workflow. I use the Info panel and with one of the read outs to total ink. Then when I am adjusting my colour curves or levels I can watch for total ink coverage.
I also forget to do this a lot, and catch my mistakes in acrobat or InDesign and have to go back and fix this, much like it you are going to have to do.
(There is probably a better way to do this. I'm a bit old school/manual.)
