• (on Snow Leopard) Impossible to open an Indesign CS3 document by clicking on an icon!

  I just installed Snow Leopard on Mac 3 today and they all have the same problem now. We cannot open an Indesign CS3 document by double clicking on an icon. Go to the tool bar (open document') -.

• Book Adobe® InDesign® CS3/CS4 SDK programming by Kris Coppieters

  Hi, I would ask if anyone knows if Adobe® InDesign® CS3/CS4 SDK programming Kris Coppieters booklet is available in ebook, since I could find only version printed on Lulu.com. Thanks for your help

  Maciej salvation,

  No, I never published my book in ebook. Don't know if it would be worth it - it's a terribly small market! I got my book up on Lulu mainly for my own use, like the note that I use when I run an InDesign SDK training session - so that I can quickly print some documents of good quality for my students.

  See you soon,.

• Opening documents InDesign CS5 to CS3?

  I found this useful article on how to open a CS5 document in CS3.

  http://help.Adobe.com/en_US/InDesign/CS/using/WSa285fff53dea4f8617383751001ea8cb3f-6d4da.h tml
  

  Unfortunately it doesn't because I need to have the CS4 in order to remove it. I have only CS3 and CS5. Is there another way to get InDesign CS5 document in CS3?

  Help, please!

  The only way to get CS3 to CS5 is through CS4 CS5 does not know .inx and CS3 does not .idml. You will lose all the features that are not supported, and you should expect differences in line because of the differences in text engines. To come back really isn't a recommended workflow.

  What is the compelling reason, and how many files you need to convert? A number of us would be willing to do one or two for you, but as I said, this isn't a good workflow, especially if they do a round trip.

• 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.

• [CS4] Indesign CS3 CS4 plugin Porting c ++ linking error

  I'm hoping to improve our current plugin to the latest version of Indesign CS4.

  I downloaded and unpacked the new SDK of Indesign CS4 and reading the guide of Portage.  I've not seen anything obvious on this issue.

  It is using Visual Studio 2005 SP1 with InDesignCS4ProductsSDK_Build578.

  It seems that through the headers that I don't end up with compilation problems.  However, by linking my project current is unable to find just a couple of external symbols.

  Does anyone have any ideas where I should look then?

  I think you need to add 'K2Vector.tpp' #include in your source - ItemSelection.cpp file?

• CS3, CS4 and CS5 Crash when clicking on.

  Hey, can't find anywhere better ask this question.

  2.8gz 4 GB ram imac running intel latest snow leopard.

  have all 3 installed indesign cs3.cs4.c5 tests.

  However as soon as the start screen has authorized, we arrive at the new document window.

  We can choose document settings, then the page is displayed in white as standard.

  then you click ANYWHERE in indesign and Flash freeze and have to force quit.

  all n software drivers are up to date and have erased the prefrences.

  any guy more ideas?

  see you soon

  Well.

  Sometimes it's obvious what's going on, but usually it is not. In this case it isn't. But.

  I guess we can say that he is waiting for the system to grant him a lock to do something, but this isn't all that clear what who or why. Although it seems to be stuck inside the TIN_Disposefont in calls to SING. I don't know anything about TIN, other than a look of 5 seconds on his web page.

  But it seems that the problem has to do with fonts and Japanese who. I think that Peter above suggests that a font may be a problem.

  So, try to remove all of your Japanese fonts. And if that does not do it, try to delete all your rules policies. See if that fixes it. If so, then add their return in half until what refine you the one who kills. Don't forget, it's only log-base 2 number of fonts, so even if you have 1024 fonts on your system, it is only 10 demi-retrecissements.

• You can open a cs3 cs4 document?

  Hi my school has cs4 and due to the limited time, I decided to work from home on Adobe flash cs3 profesional. I was wondering if I could open a cs3 cs4 document.

  Yes, a CS3 file can be opened, edited and saved in a file using CS4 CS3.  But not the other way around.

• Cannot open documents CS3, I created previously with CS3

  I have InDesign CS3, said 3.0.1 when it first opened. I used it for several years, but not for about 4 months. Suddenly I'm unable to open previous projects, that I created with this program. I have an error of the same content manager as if I was trying to open a document in CS3 with CS2 - update your plug-ins or download the new version. If I click on configure plugins, everything seems fine. If I click on update, it says that there is nothing to update.

  Suppose you have CS3. You also have CS?

  I don't know if you're on a Mac or a PC, but the files related to open with the right program? (On purpose), I created this situation for me to help open a customer files in CS4.

  Could run you a previous version?

• InDesign CS3 - jumping elements lined up to the left / to the right of the document

  We have a small advertising office. Two people working in Indesign CS3 on two big iMac.

  On a computer - when using the left/right button align in the toolbar items jump to the left or right of the document instead of align with eachother.

  Help, please.

  Gustav & Maria

  Open the Align palette and make sure the option to align attribute is set to. You may need to enlarge the palette.

• InDesign crash when the CC2015 try to open documents from older versions

  Someone know why indesign crash when I try to open documents from older versions.

  I just updated to 2015 for CC.

  How to solve this problem?

  I had to reinstall the old version and then it worked.

• InDesign CC2014 Freeze when opening documents

  This question is makes us crazy :-(    For the last month, CC InDesign keeps freezing and/or crashing when you try to open documents .indd.  We have written Adobe on the issue, but receive no response.

  The problem is intermittent - sometimes it opens just fine, other times it is hesitant / slow down,- but half of the time the application freeze just up and we need to force quit.

  When restart us InDesign after forcing the application to quit, the app opens all documents, including those causing the freezing.

  We´re Yosemite 10.10.3 on retina 5 K iMac with 32 GB of RAM running.

  Greetings,

  MB

  Thanks for the reply!

  Hmmmm... Well, the path does not lead to the Holly Grail as it appears here. I'm looking in the folder hidden in the library, in preferences, but I don't know which file to delete... have now removed a file of preferences for v10.

  I´ll report back, as soon as I don't know if the problem is resolved. Fingers crossed!

• Keep InDesign CS3 when CS4 installation

  I need to keep InDesign CS3 on my PC for compatibility with colleagues, but upgrade to CS4. Can I keep both? (One of our printers wants certain things in CS2, and it of also on my computer and works very well.)

  I'm upgrading from my standalone CS3 to CS4 a stand-alone. By the way, also have the Web Standard Suite CS4 installed (does not inDesign), which caused no problems with the help of the autonomous CS3 to InDesign.

  Any help would be appreciated. I really don't want to have to disable or remove CS3.

  I have InDesign CS3 and standalone CS4 installed on my desktop PC at home with CS4 Web Premium. No problems.

• Import and run several text documents in InDesign CS3

  I have several files to plain text, where each runs several pages long I want to import into a single document in ID CS3. I want to import them and to make them sink in a framework unique block of text one after the other on several pages. With a single text of several doc page all what I have to do is select the place and hold down the SHIFT key and InDesign adds the necessary pages and run the copy until the end of the doc. However, if I move select the docs and import to try in a text frame by holding down the SHIFT key, it will just flow the first doc in the group without any indication of overset text. I tried to place several docs of text, hold down the shift and command and brings all my docs on the first page, but in the text boxes separated with text in excess for each doc. Is it possible to do this in InDesign or maybe a plugin that can do this?

  Thank you

  I tried to find it. It was published on 21-04-08 by Peter Kahrel (I can tell because I see on my side of the discussion in my "sent" folder) in response to a post I did called "multiple files". Maybe I'm not the research archives forum correctly, or maybe it was during the time of last year when Adobe was trying (and failing) for updating the forums. In any case, I know at this time as Peter post this for public consumption, so I don't think he's going to mind if I post again:

  Copy and paste everything between the lines of hyphen (excluding dash lines) in a text editor and save it with the extension .js and put it in your scripts folder. Should be something like:

  D:\Program Files\Adobe\InDesign CS3\Adobe InDesign CS3\Scripts\Scripts Panel

  After the alphabetical order of your files and put them in their own folder, copy the path and run the script. It will make a new folder and place all of your files in a continuous narrative. I don't know how it will work with .txt files.
