From inDesing to tiff/ps. How to prepare for printing correctly?

Question

Seal

Greetings.
I have a question. We made a designer diary with 400 pages. All layout was done in indesign, and they planned to send pdf to the printing house. But the printing house said that no printing house will accept pdf and they need everything in curves or tiff.
What should I do?) I have 400 pages, but I won’t save all 400 in tifa. And if a vector (illustrator) - then what to do? create 400 artboards and in eps ? how to arrange the pages in this case? or how? give advice please.
Thanks

Answer 1

the first and clear sign of the level of the printing house is whether or not layouts are accepted in PDF - if not - then such a printing house is a forest - and 400 pages in tifa is something new ...))))
such a booklet is only in PDF in curves - that is, in PDF fonts should not be!
