Numbered update cross-references blocks InDesign CS4 CS6 and

I have a major medical journal that has a hundred references, I met with the thought that the customer can insert or change the references. I was correct and the client has now several references to go, I have updated the first in the list numbered at the end and disappeared to "update the cross-refernce" and InDesign crashes. I tried this in CS6 and CS4 but both crash.

You could try exporting as IDML and opening the IDML and saving it under a new name.

Kind regards

  • Cross-references in InDesign does not convert the links in the PDF

    Hello


    I can't work on any model that... I have a number (75, to be precise) of references in a single InDesign file to other locations within the same file. In InDesign, all work well - I can go from destination to source and vice versa.

    When I export to PDF, about 20% of them (I did not, I'm afraid) jump me to a particular page... page 58 of the 61-page document. They should not. There two correct links to this destination, the rest should go to various other pages. All cross references are using heading styles. I have not used all the bookmarks (if I remember correctly - work has been done some time ago, but has only raised the issue).

    In some cases, there are destinations in the PDF files to the appropriate pages, so I'm fixing this way links. They cannot be the original destinations, because I have more than one destination per page in some cases. In other cases, there is no destination for the page required... they have not been exported, so I'll have to create destinations in the PDF file as well. I noticed that a lot of destinations end with "Anchor xx" (where xx is a number), others are a 5 digit number what is the difference?

    It has been a pain fix these, but will be even worse when the document is updated in a few months... I don't want to have to manually re-create each hyperlink each time. I also wanted to use InDesign for another project, but the files would be updated on a regular basis in this case and if there is a known bug, it would not be an acceptable load.

    Any suggestions? Oh - the graphics are almost all related, and most are anchored frames... don't know if this has an impact, but I noticed when picking topics cross reference that some were (chart) after the title of the topic.

    Thanks in advance,


    Alison

  • Create a new edition of a book with updated cross-references

    I want to create a new edition of a book that has many files component (chapters), but keep the old one intact. The files of the components have many cross references. Is it possible to easily all these cross references updated to their new location?

    Unfortunately, no, for references interfile since links are absolute and will always point to the original files until you change them.

  • help on cross Reference Type indesign

    Hi you

    I have a question. Is it possible does not show the number of the page where the reference is in the same page? in a sample is attached. Thank you very much! It's really important... pls let me know. Andrea Imbrosciano

    Cross Reference Type indesign.png

    Hello Andrea, if you delete the text you are referencing, the cross reference will show as 'broken' in the Panel cross references. At this point, you can navigate to the reference, using the icons in the lower left corner of the Panel and to remove the reference. About changing the order of multiple references, they will appear in the order in which you create them. If I understand what you're trying to do, you want to combine, or concatenate almost references. (See tab 10, tab.11 and tab 12) on page 102. You need to play with the cross-reference formats to see if you can get the results of your search of. I did in the past, but usually end upward with a kind of workaround. There is no easy way to refer to multiple text boxes.

  • Eratic behavior: book, the main text blocks and Cross References

    I'm on InDesign 2014.2. Mac.

    I'm working on a fairly large book. About 14 chapters / sections, about 400 total pages. There are also hundreds of cross references, almost all of them to anchor references.

    The design of the book is as simple as possible. There is no graphics, text blocks only.

    I use a single master page, with facing pages, and a block of text type. I used it throughout the production of the book, and the primary text flow worked well, chapter after chapter. Pages have been created automatically, and automatically flowed text.

    Maybe I need to change the page size of the book, and I also have a lot of editing to do which will reduce a lot of the chapters. I wanted to make sure all pages use the main text flow to do that, go as gently as possible.

    To my dismay, I discovered that although I used systematically throughout the book master text streams, all but three of my chapters have inexplicably lost their text stream. All images in these chapters have converted into ordinary images. That I edit the book, it's playing havoc with paging and referrals.

    I tried to restore the flow of text in one of the first chapters. It's easy to do, in theory.

    • Move the first page off to the side frame
    • Delete all pages except the first page
    • Command-shift-click on the first page to restore the flow of the main text
    • Copy and paste the contents of the old frame into the primary stream restored.


    When I do, the pages to move properly, and I'm back to having a chapter with a block of primary text on each page. Unfortunately, this breaks all cross-references that refer to this newly reorganized chapter and all references to the front in this chapter.


    I tried to do all that I could imagine. Only remove the frames and not pages. Try without the busy book. Nothing works. I tried the command update cross-references in the book menu. Has nothing.


    It seems impossible to redistribute the text in a new primary master framework, without completely breaking the cross references.

    I finally found something that seems to work:

    • Create a new master page at the end of the document.
    • Go to the last page of the history of the chapter and the last history image a link to the text block type on the page that you just created.
    • In the pages palette, delete all pages in the document, with the exception of the master page that you created.

    All text will be redistributed within the frameworks of masters, and cross-references (to and from the frame) seem to be intact.

  • Several cross-reference Formats

    Hello

    I have a document with figures and notes. I use paragraph styles to dial my digits. I do the same with another style of paragraph numbering my notes.

    So sometimes I add cross-references in the text of a link to the image. (So if I add an image somewhere in the document, all the following numbers of the figures will be updated and I can update references in the text with the command "update cross-references".

    (Basic on the numbering and references stuff can be found here: tutorial InDesign: automatic update of the references listed for books: lynda.com - YouTube)

    Now I can use the "Cross Reference Format" option in "Edit the cross-reference" Pop Up.

    If I click on the little feather I can choose a character to the cross-reference style. So far everything is ok.

    (See images)

    But now I want to have a different format of cross reference, every time I refer to a note (then I want something with an exponent). If I refer to an image, I want the italic text, but not exposing.

    If I change the format of the cross-reference to a single reference, it will change the format for all references.

    Y at - it any way I could use reference formats?

    Thanks for help.

    See you soon

    Ok. I just discovered. I thought I have just the options that are given by default.

    These are for example "numbering". But I can add another in the left column of the second screenshot. By Cross Reference Format I can use different character styles.

  • Cross references not Visible in Control Panel

    Hi all

    I've been enjoying the feature Cross references in Indesign CS6 to use dynamic text that changes... until very recently.

    When I started to use, references of Cross (CR) would be listed in the Panel links/CR.

    I can create a destination, create a hyperlink to this destination, change it shows (I use the paragraph number) and it works as it should.

    The problem I have is that the CRs are not visible in the cross-reference panel (hyperlinks too by the way)

    This means that I can't change my cross references.

    Does anyone know why don't they show in the control panel? Or y at - it another way to see?

    I need to solve this problem. I tried to reset the preferences I found in other posts, but that did not help

    SOLVED!

    The problem appeared to be with my working space profile. I changed my custom profile for 'For interactive PDF' (which has the hyperlinks) and it worked. All hyperlinks and cross-references show.

    I customized my workspace with the panels I need and then registered a new workspace with the same name. Everything works fine after you save a new profile. I'll take a backup of the workspace file, so I can easily restore it if it happens again.

  • cross references and styles of character

    I created a cross-reference in InDesign format that includes the paragraph text and the page number. I want the cross-reference to be regular and the page number itself to be bold. In the reference formats dialog box, I clicked in front of < pageNum / > and inserted a character Style from the drop of the icon "+" to the right of the definition. I typed in the name of the character style between the quotes, which is "BOLD". The definition given in the dialog box looks like this:

    "< fullPara / >" < name cs = "Bold" > page < / CS > < pageNum / >

    I clicked on the "Save" button. It does not seem serious if I click on the check box on or off for the character for the reference Style. The reference everything is transformed "BOLD" or firing everything is regular. I am not able to apply a character style to the part of the cross-reference.

    If anyone has a suggestion or can he enlighten me on that, I would be very happy.

    The beginning and the tag for the character style must surround the content that you want to assign.

  • Cross references: CS4 CS3

    Background:

    My company group uses InDesign CS3 on Windows XP for about 5% of our needs of document. The low percentage is mainly due to the cost and learning curve issues, but we will not impose to spend more (especially our technical reports) the Word documents on InDesign because of page, numbering and references issues. The documents are graphics heavy, so it's a shame, especially with our 300 + page documents that end in PDF format.

    Question:

    I read that references has been substantially strengthened in CS4. If I use CS4 to put in references and take my paper for my CS3 what's happening?

    Cross references did not exist in CS3. If you bring it to CS3, they will

    you go!

  • 6 InDesign cross-references cause mysterious line breaks

    In a paragraph with several cross references (7), 6 InDesign, the scrolling text to the next line, apparently without reason, even if there is room for the text on the same line.

    Here is my example:

    At the end of line 1): when I do a link to Unit 52, it makes the word 'article' drop down to the next line, even if there is room for it. (And also with 19, 22, when they are turned into links, they fall down.) If I remove the reference cross on "52" the word return upward on the same line.

    (1) animated and inanimate. This distinction affects how we use articles and verbs so we talk about in most of the units on the verbs and articles, but amongst the

    other places in the following units: 17, 19/B, 19/C, 21/B, 22/A, / 22B and 22 c /, / 23 c, 27 (used as an object), 52 (summary of articles).

    So after I created the 7th cross references, like this line breaks:

    (1) animated and inanimate. This distinction affects how we use articles and verbs so we talk about in most of the units on the verbs and articles, but amongst the

    other places in the following units: 17, 19/B, 19/C, 21/B, 22/A, / 22B and 22 c /, / 23 c, 27 (used as an object), 52 (summary of)

    Articles).

    It seems that 6 InDesign can't manage a number of cross-references in a single line.

    Have you ever seen this happen? Do you know what to do about it?

    Thanks for any input and help!

    I've seen it happen. I also posted about it here, and introduced a bug report, but I have not tested to see if it is still present in the CC of InDesign post-CS6 versions. Cross-references can cause goofy cloth, implausible, in conditions that I can't identify. However, your text will probably compose as you expect if you pass the composer of normal paragraph to the paragraph universal composer.
