InDesign BOOK PANEL.

I use InDesign cc 2015 .  Created a Board book with all the documents, (chapters) in place. However, each chapter remains a separate document and even if I successfully added page numbers, (1-300 consecutively) and run sync, each document retains its original page numbering in the Panel, that is to say, 1-14, 1-23, 1-8, etc..  What I failed to do, or what I did wrong? Studied the use of ID manual, book of Cohen and the class ID in a book without luck. Tap dance on one edge of the knife to a date deadline. Keep things simple.  Thank you. Galdric.   

First make sure that in the indesign preferences > General > paging > display is set to: section numbering

Then, set option to continue from the previous document in book page numbering.

Third, book panel flyout menu choose update numbering > update all numbers

  • InDesign CS6 pointer does not work in the book panel

    After you have installed InDesign CS6 (v 8.1) on a new computer laptop that runs Windows 7 Professional (service pack 1, 64-bit operating system), the pointer is not active anything in the book panel.  I have been using the same version of older InDesign on a cell phone under the same version of Windows 7.  This problem appears to be limited to InDesign and does not appear in Photoshop or Illustrator (the two CS6).  I have uninstalled and reinstalled the programs, and installed all the updates that are available for programs and windows.

  • In an inDesign book page numbering

    I build a manual in book form in InDesign.  This is my first time using the book options.

    I want to set up the numbering of the pages of the book.  I can do this in the book panel, or what I have to put in place page numbers in each separate document?

    Yes. Just put on all the master pages Current Page number marker - your document will use this marker to put the correct number in place.

  • Save the InDesign book

    I have a book file that uses InDesign 4. He has 19 chapters (380 pages). I kept him in ID4 because it was a revision for a second printing, 16 months after the original book has been created. I was worried to open it in a newer version 5 ID I have on another computer (have 5.5 install) due to a possible formatting problems.

    OK overhaul, pdf out of the editor.  Now I want to save it on another HDD to the back and another hard drive to open it in a new version of the code.  The problem is that it will not save the current book with chapters revised anywhere.  The chapters don't record the date current changes! But the changes are there as long as I don't have to copy or move them to another drive. They go back to a very early version of the book, not even a last to first print, whenever I move and open on another computer.  Each chapter shows old date when moved and don't have the latest changes.  The old dates are there on the chapters in ID4 but files are up to date when I open the in ID4.

    This means that the current version only I can open on a hard drive, on a single computer with ID 4. I can't do a back up, save money, or copy and paste.

    I wonder if I could "save under" each chapter individually? Then create a new book?

    I want to work on an interactive version in 5.5 without touching the printed version, but I can't make a copy to date.

  • Problems of pagination for the file InDesign book

    I'm working on an e-book. I need all the chapters first on their own page, then I broke my original document in separate chapters and created an InDesign book file.

    FYI, I work in CS5.5

    I have read/seen information about pagination for a book file and I put in place so that the numbering of the pages 'continues the previous document. But each chapter, I bring you, begins with page 1 in the file book (instead of continue). No matter what I tried, I just can't get the numbering to flow continuously through the book.

    Would not be a big problem, since my e-book will not have the numbers, but when I save this file book as an ePub, which converts a single chapter (depending on which is the source of style) - not the entire book with several chapters.

    Can someone help me understand what goes wrong?

  • InDesign book, synchronization, opening a single file

    Re: IDCC

    Question 1

    One of the .indb files I created has about 20 + individual .indd files. Whenever I have an amendment to a single .indd and then save it, .indb automatically starts a synchronization process and I can't do anything until it is complete.

    I like to leave the file open book when I'm working, but this automatic synchronization impeded my work process.

    Is it possible for me to stop the automatic synchronizaton?

    I looked at different areas of the program, and if the option is present, have neglected and I also looked in the help, and if it's there, I missed it there, too.

    Question 2

    Quite often, when I try to open a single document in a book, ALL the individual documents of open book.

    What steps should I take to make sure I have as a single document in a book and not accidentally open each of them?

    Thank you

    1,

    In the Panel menu book (upper-right of the Panel book) you can choose 'Book Page Numbering Options... '. »

    And disable automatic updates.

    2.

    Make sure that you have only one selected file. Sometimes if you have several files selected and open a file from the book panel will open all selected files.

    Take your time in selecting the document in the Panel - and carefully double-tap.

  • Export documents within an InDesign book in a single PDF file

    I have several documents within an InDesign book. Is there a way that they can be exported in a single PDF file?

    Here is the script I use:

        for (var i = 0; i < data.chapters.length; i++)
           {
                show_list.children[0].selection = i; show_list.show ();
               
                DocName = data.chapters[i].name;

                app.pdfExportPreferences.pageRange = PageRange.allPages;
                app.documents.itemByName(DocName).exportFile(ExportFormat.pdfType, f, false, data.preset);
                app.documents.itemByName(DocName).close(SaveOptions.no);
           }

    The script will export to the PDF format, but each document is a separate PDF file.

    Any HEP would be appreciated.  Thank you.

  • CS6 InDesign overlay Panel options are not available

    I am an experienced Adobe DPS designer and use "Classic" DPS because it was in beta.

    Just upgraded my Mac Pro to El Capitan (10.11.5) and now the Panel inlays in InDesign CS6 offers all the options when a setting is selected.

    overlay2.jpg

    This is true for all types of coating.

    I uninstalled CS6 and reinstalled, updated, remove the preferences. Nothing helps so far.

    Fortunately the Panel works great on a second computer (Macbook Pro), which also has been recently updated to El Capitan.

    A previous post suggests reinstalling the toolset of DPS. But my impression is that these are updated through Creative Cloud now and am not sure that install them separately now are a good idea.

    Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance...

    Transferred to DPS forum.

    CS6 is unsupported under El Capitan. It was reported several inconveniences to crashes.

    If not help not trashing prefs, restore your previous operating system.

  • What is the best format to import to an indesign book files

    I am reproducing a family cookbook and will place small blows to head to their family members or their children next to the recipe.  I intend to scan and import about 150 pages of the ancient book of recipes and use the pages but will place photos, adjacent to the recipe.

    I tried this with indesign cs3 import pages as PDF and ran into memory important problems and have now upgraded to cs6 but would make good sense for the first time.

    So bottom line: if import a large number of scanned documents is it better to analyze as JPEG or PDF files or is there a better way.

    You have Acrobat Pro? If so, I'd run all these pages however scanned OCR and conversion of text before placing them.

    But I wonder what you are doing that you are out of memory because placed images (as opposed to glued or placed and nested) must use only enough space for the pointer on the image and a preview of the screen. What resolution did you use to scan pages? What color mode? Which was exactly the memory problem you experience?

    Regarding the image format, you should see the same size of file that you use tif, jpeg, PDF or psd to your images if all other factors are the same.

  • Question to export PDF from Indesign book Blurb - color change

    Hello

    This is my first post on the Adobe forum.

    I have a problem when you export a PDF file that is intended to be printed for a book Blurb. The Preview on the site blurb is very different from my PDF in terms of colors.

    This is my workflow:

    -All my photos are converted to CMYK blurb (via photoshop) color profile and saved as TIFF.

    -J' I put all my pictures on my layout in Indesign CS6 (which also has the color of the text of presentation profile)

    - Then I set the PDF export preset that Blurb has provided (the profile description [based on 'Blurb PDF X - 3 Export Preset'] [based on ' [PDF / X-3: 2002]'] use these parameters to create Adobe PDF documents that should be verified or must conform to PDF / X-3: 2002, an ISO standard for graphic content exchange.)  For more information on the creation of PDF/X-3 compliant PDF documents, please visit the Acrobat User Guide.  Created PDF documents can be opened with Acrobat and Adobe Reader 4.0 and later.]

    -C' is where the problem begins: if I read the PDF with Adobe reader, it seems very well (i.e. I see on my screen of Indesign) SEE IMAGE 1. But if I look at the preview of the PDF on the Blurb Book Preview module it looks like really bad (see IMAGE 2).

    So my question is:

    What might explain my PDF looks so different from the preview Blurb and what step should I take to fix this problem?

    Blurb people have no idea so I hope that the Adobe community can help me!

    Thank you in advance!

    Vincent

    IMAGE 1: as seen on PDF when read with Adobe reader

    1 a- What I see on PDF - Blurb settings using Acrobat.jpg

    IMAGE 2: as seen on the text of presentation preview module.

    IMAGE 2 - same pdf as viewed on foxit reader.jpg

    I recommend that place your images in InDesign as sRGB (you need to go back to the original images, not those who are already converted to CMYK). When you have finalized your document InDesign export presets PDF Acrobat, by selecting the text of presentation PDF presets (that you have installed). You can view the PDF result using Acrobat on your own (probably calibrated monitor).

  • How to configure margins for printing from InDesign books?

    Good evening

    Please, I need help to solve this problem.

    I have created a book (made many documents - INDD files) InDesign. So far so good... I would like to print this book (he has 9 chapters, which means, 9 INDD added to this topic). However, I set each document as 'facing pages', but the margins of each page are different.

    It has:

    RIGHT - 1 centimeter

    LEFT - 1.4 cm

    INTERIOR - 2 centimeter

    OUTSIDE - 1 centimeter

    The problem is that some documents end with a right-hand page, and the following document begins with a right-hand page too (so margins become a problem because I have to send to the printer shop and margins must be accordingly). Some chapters have only a single page, so that it follows a unique page template, but I need to deal with pages...

    In order to set the margins, I created two master pages and margins applied to them.

    Then, I applied these master pages to the membership of all documents (INDD) of this book.

    Please, I need your help to solve. Thanks in advance!

    If you allow your page numbers in the book to be "continue from previous document" file, your pages will take the correct position.

    Ok. The files you work with are hidden from Mountain Lion, so if you do not know how to access the files in the library user hidden, see library user access hidden files | Mac OS 10.7 and later

    The paths to these files are the previous link:

    Drive hard/Users //Library/Preferences/and replace the WHOLE Adobe InDesign, not only the content folder.

  • Select the layers when you export an Indesign book in PDF format?

    Hello

    I created a book consisting of separate Indesign files, each containing different languages. Each language is in a separate layer.

    Then, I created 4 different book, each of which contains about 5 files. This makes me 4 pounds with all the languages spread over different layers. When I export the book in PDF format, I would like to be able to select the language layer, so I can create a PDF file by language. I can open each file to hide all layers of language except the one I want to export, but it is a tedious job.

    I'm wandering if there is a faster way to export in PDF format each language without having to open and re - register each separate Indesign file.

    Thanks for all the comments.

    :-)

    Tom

    Why do you need to omit the French layer for a book in German?

    Just export all the layers.

    Then, in Acrobat, turn off the French (Italian, Spanish, English?) and leave Germany exposed.

    Save as "Meine tollen deutschen Buchmarkt.pdf.

    Then, turn off all the layers except the format, and then save it under "my book excellent francais.pdf.

    I promise you that no one outside of a very few people will ever know that diapers with other languages hidden there. Almost anyone who uses Acrobat knows there is to all layers. (Except the brilliant people on this forum)
