Can you trace how Indesign files to a specifik image link?

I have an image database, a link about several Indesign files.

I'm not the original author of the Indesign, neither the image database files, so I have no overview of the Indesign files links how to each image.

And now, I have an image I want to make a change - but I'm afraid to do it, when I do not know in which Indesign files, the image is used.

So my question is - is there a way to track the links established on a specific image in any Adobe program?

Maybe the flow might do the trick for you...?

  • How a button can work between 2 indesign files

    I am creating a catalog of products and each section has been created in an indesign file, separated with a separate content page that includes the buttons to link to each of the indesign files. When these are added as items to the folio of the function of the buttons do not work. There are buttons in each indesign file that works when then action is to go to another page in the same file, but try the GET them to post a link to other files turns out to be problematic. Does anyone know how this can be achieved.

  • I can't open my Indesign file because it was created in a newer version of Indesign, how to open it?

    I have a 2015CC of INDesign file and I try to open it on my computer at home, and he won't let me not because it was created in a newer version of InDesign, what should I do to get this open file?

    InDesign

    You should be able to open a file created in a newer version of InDesign in a lower version of InDesign. If you carefully read the alert, it is said that it can convert the document you created in a newer version at home to the previous version of InDesign that you use at work.

    Why don't you try doing what the alert asking you to do & see what you get? -Sign in with your Adobe ID, restart ID and try to reopen the file - it should be able to convert. It is called Simple Save return service that allows you to convert higher version documents to lower versions of ID through IDML.

    Since it is a service, you must be connected to internet for availing this service.

  • You can open the same indesign file on mac and PC?

    Watch creative installation cloud on a mac and PC (at work) but need to read old and new indesign files created. Thank you

    1. The INDD format back on Mac and Windows.
    2. If you have the same version or a version more recent that the file was created with you can open it without problem.
    3. If you want to open a file in an earlier version, you should ask an IDML file from the initiator. But expect undesirable changes in the file.
    4. Inside the creative cloud you can open cs6 up any latest file if you have an internet connection, but expect changes too.
    5. Problems between Mac and Windows are often policies. The Mac can read only fonts Windows, but Windows can not read only Mac fonts. If you are using OTF fonts only you have no problem.
    6. New OS have problems with T1 (Postscript fonts), my recommendation is to avoid.
    7. Using PSE often of problems appear, specific with the new operating system and postscript fonts are embedded in the EPS, do not use it, use PDF/X-4.
  • Can you open/edit indesign CS3 files that have been created with CS5?

    I recently purchased indesign CS5 and use that for my internship. However, my boss is still using CS3 and said that she could not open or edit the indesign file that I sent him.  I looked to see if there was an option in 'export' and have not found anything.  I use a mac and I think she uses a P.C., too, when I finally sent him the file, I was still with my free trial - all this make a difference?  Help, please!

    What has been covered time without end, but anyway, I'll do it again!

    You must export a CS5 idml file, and then open the idml in CS4, export a file inx there then that open in CS3 and save it as an indd.  Sorry but there is no way round, presence, end of history etc etc.  If she's using CS3 and you use CS5 there are no roads between them unless you have CS4, and even in this case the road is littered with pitfalls!  Look at here for a pretty long discussion / sometimes write on the subject.

    Ultimately it will have to be upgraded, or you could see if you could buy a CS3 or version 4 but it is very difficult to get a legitimate copy, the only way is to buy it off someone you know and most of the people do not sell because they upgrade.

    Best new last, there is a solution in the short term to this guys blog and you can download a trial version of CS4 that will last for a month.

  • How can I change how long file names & file can be?

    How can I change how long my file names & file can be?

    The path length limit cited in the article referenced by Abdul R is 260.

    It depends on the length of the full path to the file (for example, C:\Program Files\filename.txt). Windows limits a single path to 260 characters. That's why you can sometimes get an error when copying a file with a very long file name to a location that has a longer path than the location of the original file.

    -------------------------------------

    However, there are various subtleties that reduce that number in practice to 255 (or less), including all spaces.

    We start with the absolute limit imposed by Windows. The API operating system puts a limit (called MAX_PATH) 260 characters for the display name with the included path. This number is often cited. However, the current limits are smaller due to various other restrictions. For example, all names have to have a terminator at the end normally null only the computer see this fine marker, but it is considered as a character if there are really only 259 characters available. (Forget to count the null terminator is a common mistake). A three other characters are used by the designation of the drive or volume (for example, C:\). Thus, the limit to name all the folders and subfolders as well as the file is reduced to 256 characters. However, no files or a folder may have a name more than 255 characters. This includes spaces and some backslashes used as separators. This limit of 255 characters per object is imposed by the way Windows to encode the characters but other considerations usually impose lower limits.

    =====================

    And now, the grand fanale, the answer to your question:

    You cannot change the limit of the length of the path. It is imposed by various requirements and is coded in the system hard. You can set the 'balance' between the files and folder/sub-folder names. For example, use short directory names in order to use more long filenames.

    ======================

    All this can be a nuisance to the user. A file name may be OK when originally created but be too long if the file should be copied or moved to another location whose path is longer.

    There may be additional complications if the files are to be burned to CD or DVD.

  • Can I edit the Indesign files on my ipad with creative cloud?

    I want to make changes to the Indesign files on my ipad and just downloaded the creative application of cloud for the ipad. But I can't open my files, which are in my Dropbox, thanks to the new application.

    It is not possible to open InDesign files on an iPad with any application.

    All the Cloud Creative app allows you to view thumbnails of files. You cannot change them.

    The Adobe Comp CC application allow you to create a preliminary page for an InDesign file that you can open in InDesign. It is not a publisher of InDesign files.

  • Preserve spot colors when you import the InDesign file into another InDesign file

    Work in InDesign CC.

    I often import InDesign files into other InDesign files and find it very useful for my workflow. Often it is a file that acts like a piece of the library that is used in the other files and I love being able to just change it and automatically update the other files.

    However I just came up with a work that is CMYK + spot and spot colors are not preserved import - they seem to import as CMYK. Can I export a PDF file and do it this way, but I prefer to skip the intermediate step.

    Any advice?

    Have you checked? It really looks like that process tasks is enabled in the file of reception, but I expect that to affect the PDF as well.

    I tested on CS6 and it works correctly, but I have on thei smachine CC, and no time this morning to start it, then maybe someone else will test for you to see if they get the same results.

  • I can't access my InDesign files

    Hello

    This morning I turned on my work computer, only to find out that I couldn't access my Indesign, photoshop or illustrator files, despite the fact that some files have been saved on the computer and an external hard drive. There are now 100's of files I cannot now access and I start to panic as my dept IT said they didn't know why.

    Files appears as white thumbnails and when I clicked on them the following message appears:

    Adobe Indesign does not support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file format is may be missing, or the file may be open in another application.

    I had been using the same version of Indesign (CS4) along is not as if I have recently updated and now can't open files. I tried also to open the files on another computer, but no luck. It seemed just to take place overnight, and no one has all the answers. If someone has experienced something similar with as many files, I would appreciate your advice and I also want to understand the cause of the problem, so something like this doesn't happen again.

    Thank you in advance.

    First of all, I think that there is a pretty good chance that the files are OK and that the damage, whatever it is, is the program level and has been done to your entire network. You have another system not connected to your network at home perhaps, where the opening, you can try some of these files?

    I hesitate to ask what is obvious (as I say, I'm not able to guess these guys), but if they are Windows systems, have they tried a system restore to a few days, or restore from a backup to a Windows image or a Mac system?

  • How can I use a JPEG file as a background image for my vi to 8.5

    Im working on a vi that I intend to help as part of an alarm system.  I would use a JPEG file of my house as a background image for the vi, or possibly to just display in a window on the control panel.  I've seen people use their own images before, but never looked at what it was.

    Im trying to use the 'read JPEG' file vi and the flattened pixmap 'draw' vi to achieve this.  The vi works, but nothing shows up on the front panel.  If I try to create a "new image" flag out of the flattened pixmap 'draw' vi, I get a blank white window on the front panel.

    Any advice?

    Thank you

    The image could be there just not to come to the right place in the image control. What is the control relative to the image? Must be a JPEG file or can you just copy as a bitmap to the Clipboard and paste it on the front panel? Can you put a photo and the unworking VI?

  • Resolution of the image when you place the InDesign file in InDesign

    I feel like this is a silly question but I do not know the answer!

    If I place an InDesign file that contains a picture in a another InDesign, the resolution of the original image file is kept? For example, if I have an InDesign A5 file, that contains a chart where the ppi effective (because it's been reduced) is 600 dpi, and then I place the entire InDesign file it in another file and EXPAND, what happens to my graph?

    Thank you!

    I have a document with an InDesign file linked, an area of text that is used in many documents, so interested in this issue.

    I did a quick test and it seems to work as it should. I made a smaller file with an image linked and bound the Indesign file in a larger document, and since it is a linked InDesign file it recognizes and displays the image in the links Panel.

  • How can I fix the path to the Group of image links?

    I'm working on a huge file Indesign started by someone else.

    The file has a lot of images which is originally located in several different folders, that is to say-

    Image1.PSD is located in the folder Images/family has

    Image5.PSD is located in the folder Images/family B

    and so on.

    I copied the image folder on my computer, but I still have to locate each image in this folder.

    Is there an easy way to tell him to use the 'images' folder on my computer?

    Are all records where the images are located in the same folder the InDesign file as a parent? If this is not the case, try this. If they are, and ID does not find the links automatically, try to make a folder of links and move folders in it.

  • How can you have several pdf files open on an android phone?

    There was a time that each pdf file had its own recent app tab for each pdf file open on an android phone. Now for some reason, these "geniuses" thought it was a good idea to open a single PDF both. To open a file pdf will replace could have all previously opened pdf files. So, what adobe so smart and clever...

    Although the place where you left off in a previous PDF will be saved is still not a good idea. I hope that this (not a smart function) PROBLEM will be fixed soon. I can't get on how dumb, they were. My god.
