If your PSD contains any vector information, don't place it in the InDesign layout. Save as a PDF instead, and place the PDF. The reason for this is that a placed PSD is always a raster image in InDesign, because Id uses the raster layer that Photoshop saves within the PSD. A PDF retains all the vector information and makes it available to InDesign. A quick test will demonstrate the difference. I discussed this point here
Note that a Smart Object, even if the image it contains is a vector, always exports as a raster image, even to PDF, so create text and vectors as actual text or shape layers.
There are some peculiarities that you must be aware of:
save the artwork as filename.psd from photoshop and open indesign clicl on < File > than click on < Place> or CMD D to place the artwork in INdesign and you can export the file as PDF (print qaility) for production.
