InDesign DPS several suggestion of workflow designer

Hello

My team is currently working on a magazine. In order to speed up the timetable of the project, we have divided 3 parts of books for 3 designers.

3 of them store the indesign files in their own PC/Mac.

Here's the problem:

When 1 of the designer with a short trip and unable to make amends article he is accountable to. Then another designer 2 need to go to his machine to make the changes. Or copy the indesign files to their own machine and re-upload article even once.

I want to ask is - can we leave to store all the indesign files on the server and we can access with several machine such as PC and Mac?

I try to download the indesign file from the server from my Mac, but my colleague can access from his PC.

Any suggestion or solution for this kind of problem?

Thank you!

Place them in a Dropbox folder or a network server. However, only one person can control the folio.

  • Publisher cannot access file InDesign in InCopy CC, while the designer is in the same folder with InDesign CC

    Hello

    That's the problem we have

    When a designer opens a file that is stored on a network through InDesign InDesign share, and an editor trying to open the same InDesign file in InCopy, the error message "this file is already opened by another user or another application. This file can be stored on a network server and cannot be opened until the other user closes it."is displayed. To work around this problem, the designer must close the file in InDesign, and the editor should open the InDesign file in InCopy before the designer will again open the InDesign file using the InDesign application. This issue does not appear in 9.1. Adobe support said that the files are not at the same time in InCopy and InDesign, but it is the function that the product has been designed to accomplish and this problem has never happened before. The files are stored on a network share.

    In addition, when an editor is updating an InCopy assignment and a designer click the transfer of update to update their view from InDesign, the error message "the content is locked and cannot be modified." appears. If the designer click OK, the display is updated as expected. This happens even is the assignment is NOT checked out by another user.

    Finally, if a designer adds or updates a graph in a file using InDesign InDesign while the editor is editing the file using InCopy, the editor using InCopy is not update unless they completely shut out of the InCopy application and re-open it, which, because of the above problems is not possible. The only way that the file can be edited in InCopy is the designer to close completely out of the file, for publishers to close, and then reopen in InCopy, how the designer can reopen the case. If some editors are away from their office at the time of the update, the whole process must be repeated so that they are able to open the latest version of the file in InCopy.


    This question seems to be due to a significant flaw in the 9.2 update version for InDesign, as none of these issues took place before the 9.2 update. A computer currently always has version 9.1 of InDesign to our company and does not have these problems, we lead with 9.2. We tested several configurations of our network trying to deviate from our network as the problem, but the only case in which we experience these problems is when we use InDesign version 9.1.  Also, we never had this problem before the update of InDesign and InCopy 9.2

    Thank you!

    Graham, thank you for this detailed post and screenshots. A group of my friends InCopy customers alerted me on the question and pointed me to this thread. I have passed along some products Adobe InDesign/InCopy and engineers and leaders hope to see their responses here soon (and a fix, fingers crossed).

    In the meantime, the workaround that is not * too * expensive is to use assignments. InCopy users on 9.2 can open assignments without a question, as I can tell. If you use a workflow based on the layout (like most of my clients), all this means, is that you have your opinion of designers one more step when preparing their ID file and that is, to create an assignment which is the * entire * InDesign file, actually it backwards in a layout-based workflow.

    They create the transfer by clicking the new posting at the bottom of the assignments Panel, no need to enter anything in the "assigned to:"on the ground or to change other settings, ensuring that InDesign records in the file of the project to the server. "

    Say they called the assignment "April Issue." If they have already exported stories, simply drag the InCopy content not affected on the April outcome category in the category and then update the assignment (they can right-click on it to update, or choose update assignments in the Panel menu). If they export more/news stories, ask them to export them or drag and drop to this assignment even.

    Notify your users of InCopy do not open the INDD file more. Make them rather go to assignments folder (automatically created ID) project folder and open the assignment file. "April Issue.icma" in this example.

    Multiple InCopy users open the same file transfer simultaneously, just as they could open the same INDD file simultaneously. They have nevertheless check stories in and out as usual. Always only one user of InDesign can open the file at a time.

    The only other change in the workflow is that the designer will have to remember to always update the assignment of each change. Save the changes to the InDesign file does not automatically update the assignment file (ICMA). They might want to assign a keyboard shortcut to this command.

  • InDesign DPS and iTunes Connect: In - App Purchase will not appear

    Greetings Adobeans,

    first: I'm not a native speaker, so please forgive me my maybe English erronenous.

    My question / problem: the company I have a job publishes a multi-folio-tourguide-app. It is produced with InDesign DPS and the App Builder, published via Folio Producer and should now be sold on iTunes at the Apple iPad, so the publication process leads inevitably to iTunes Connect. We have already launched the multi-folio-app itself as well as a free leaflet as an in-app free and no consumables purchase. The application is now online, downloadable and our first folio works very well - even it stays "waiting for download... I think, the multi-folio-app tells iTunes Connect to get the producer of Folio data, but I don't know the exact details of this operation.

    The next step was to publish a second, in-app purchase price.

    Our efforts were (it might be useful for a solution, I guess):

    -publication of the folio in the producer of Folio (Status: Public - trade).

    -creation of an in-app purchase no consumables to iTunes Connect, using the same ID of product as the producer Folio, folio

    - and tell the download of an update for the entire application, because Apple and Adobe.

    But the folio never appeared in the app. It just the iTunes Connect-menu "Waiting for Upload", as our first, but it will not appear.

    My wisdom as a graphic designer came to an end a long time ago, Apple told us, that they look at these in-app purchases at all and we should ask Adobe for help... and well, aid Services Adobe sent me here.

    So, I would be extremely grateful for any help or lights.

  • Adobe InDesign / DPS query

    Hello

    Is it possible to create a folio / application and deploy it in multiple (stand-alone) iPads WITHOUT having to download on Apple's App Store using InDesign / DPS?

    Scenario / content:

    I would like to create a photo album sheet and deploy in a single iPad. I would then like to offer this service as part of my business and deploy several iPads (if needed) without having to download it via the Apple App Store.

    Any thoughts on if this is possible and if yes, how, would be much appreciated.

    SB

    1. You must submit the app to apple and will be available in the app store.
    2. You can create a .ipa and sync it to the device that is listed (in your apple developer account) for testing.
    3. You can share your folio with all those who have access to the content viewer using adobe ID on their iPad.

    Other than that if you want to sell your application without submitting it to apple is not possible.

  • Suggestions on workflow? (Flash-> Illustrator-> print)

    Hello

    At work, I have done elearning graphics and animations for years and have been using Flash for almost everything. Now, we are developing some of our materials to e-learning for screen AND print. Ofcourse content has its differentiated on platforms, but the Visual material must be the same. As I know nothing print and Illustrator, we hired someone with these skills.

    Over the years, Flash has become my main tool for graphics development (as I am digital only), and our new print workflow begins with my flash designs being converted into SVG and then imported into Illustrator. So far so good... BUT of course, the colors are a nightmare. Flash doesn't have CMYK and color profiles, and this means that my colleague-print must manually change each single color my drawings to adapt for CMYK, color profile and the type of printpaper.

    Someone here has a suggestion on our workflow changes to address these issues of color?

    PS. I know that I might just start using Illustrator instead of Flash, but the time required for the switch actually is not an option at the moment. My colleague-print does not have the kind of drawings I do, so she will not be able to do the graphics from scratch.

    PPS. Yes I know that Flash is supposed to be "obsolete". I also used edge animate for a few years now, but I still don't have my graphics in Flash (which could make a triumphant return to this years MAX!) )

    You're at least using a limited color palette?

    In the case where a limited game predictable RGB color must match a set of CMYK colors, you can convert using an action.

    If this is not the case, you could actually save time if you learn how to use Illustrator. And learn to think in print. When that you wait for the right time to arrive?

    Or at least just the way work in Flash, then move to Illustrator to do the coloring it.

    Your colleague does know how to use the function "Recolor art"?

  • Convert InDesign DPS Article

    I'm working on converting an InDesign magazine in an article DPS, but I can't export it as a DPS article because ratios do not match. Is there a work around for this?

    Also Tim, when you select 'iPhone' as a built-in digital media, InDesign uses by default a resolution low resolution iPhone 4 320 x 480. Then, when you go to export and select the resolution of the iPhone 6, it IS a different aspect ratio.

    When you initially set the document in which you will develop the content, override the preset with the dimensions of the phone you are targeting and make sure you use these same dimensions when you export.

    Bates, usually at a resolution of 640 x 480 iPhone 4-retina will be developed. This will properly solve on a 4S and get letter boxed (across the top and down) on the 5 and 6 processor (it actually resolves on a mini iPad too!). However, if you design for the 5 or 6, it will get letter recessed vertically on small screens which looks very natural!

    Just make sure that whatever the size you set up the document, is the same size (or at least report l / h) that you use when you export - they can be overridden at each point.

  • SUGGESTIONS NEEDED: Graphic designer who needs to organize my graphic library

    Ive been wanting to find a better way to organize my extensive library of what follows (art of vector and Raster): Raster/vector designs, Logos, icons, vector graphics, backgrounds, Fonts (I use FontBook), print & web templates, Stock Photos, a large NUMBER of vector art, something frills to multi color images complex Web Design stuff (icons (, buttons, banners, etc) and last but not the least swatches native Adobe CS, patterns, gradients, actions and brushes.  I'm sure I've left out some, but you get the idea.

    I build my large collection for the period of 4-5 years and has grown to 40g of HD space to house these vaguely catergorized subfolder (i.e., vector Art, Stock Photos, plugins (degraded, brushes, etc) PS backgrounds/Textures, so on and so forth.)  I would like to store my data on the outside but with the speed of the USB flow, am not wanting to slow deck more than it does already. But help with external storage and quick access to the files would also contribute to

    As your probably thinking he is trying to become difficult to manage and even worse finding or searching for items, whereas many generically is Ive gained package names (132456.eps. flower00234.jpg, etc.)  Bridge helps a lot, but I'm trying to catergorize records and the Word key, or images that as clean as possible I hope to do it manually on a system recommended or using a 3rd party software to apply metadate as keywords that will be available is IDEAL!

    I started using Lightroom 3 to manage and catalog my collection (no), but like the keywords functionality and features meta data in LR.

    So what I am trying to accompish:
    1. organize all my art in of specific catergories
    2. I hope use metadata and keywords within the operating system program or a 3rd party manufacture easily searchable items in the Finder or Adobe Bridge.
    3. properly manage and store the art as it comes to me several times a day to keep everything up-to-date if I make a backup of all my design files, every month or so to keep stored on computer or on the cloud.

    Of the suggestions(software/procedures), links or general help on this issue is greatly appreciated!

    Thanks again for any help lended! Anyone who is willing to help me with this and is interested in Graphic Design or graphics tools, I can certainly share ANYTHING from my collection to help
