I am an Indesign relative beginner (especially related to complex color correction). I've imported an EPS logo file into the document (it's currently layered over a photo) and in preview mode, it looks completely fine.


Once I export the image, however, the background colors in the circle completely disappear and the color distorts.


I have already tried: 1) changing my export options to print (with convert to destination preserve numbers).
2) Making the document transparency blend space RGB and then also CMYK.

I don't have Illustrator, so if you could please suggest any options I would be super grateful (and if you could please explain it step by step that would be fantastic). I'm so confused!

It appears that the original EPS has a Transparency Effect enabled. Saving an EPS with Special Effects do not guarantee results in other applications even though AI and InD are both Adobe apps.

If your final product needs to be a web file, then open the EPS in Photoshop and resave it as an JPG.

If you don't have Photoshop either, you can "get by" with this hack: zoom in on the logo in InDesign (fill your screen), and make a screen capture of the logo. This will give you a 72dpi (but at least 1400 pixels wide) RGB PNG that can be replaced into InDesign.
