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.

    Of course you can.

    Well, you should be able to do it, but until you're able to explain more clearly what you are doing, so that we can solve the hang up, it is impossible to determine how to help you.

    So, you can make a backup with Desktop Manager if you prefer. Then use ABC Amber IPD Converter software (google to find it) to extract the file backup IPD to your address book.

    But my first advice is easier.

  • 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?

  • The broken book page - InDesign 5.5 numbering

    I have known some very persistent and reproducible errors with book numbering in InDesign 5.5.

    Any comments or ideas would be very welcome.

    Platform: OS X Lion (clean installation), InDesign CS5.5 7.5.2 no plug-ins on the test environment

    Reproducible condition:

    1. Create a new book, activate the automatic page numbering (continues from the previous section).
    2. Create four new documents, each adds ten pages. Make sure Autodial is on.
    3. Add each of these documents to the book.
    4. Save the book.
    5. Update the numbering of the pages of the book.

    Result:

    • The documents are not page numbers correct display book in the book palette. They show the document, no book, parent of numbering. Each document is displayed (1-10) in the book palette.
    • When you view the documents themselves, the first two as expected from the document page number: (1-10) and (11-20). It is also the result when exporting to PDF format.
    • However documents 3 and 4 of the book take page numbers (11-20) in addition, as if they were every second positioned in the book.

    Tested:

    • I tried the automatic replacement of pages options for the book (start on odd/even) without change of numbering. UPDATE: on a book 20 document there are a few sections that seem to reboot as "pairs", so the number restarts randomly throughout the book. Same document and book options numbering, as described here.
    • I tested with different numbers of documents, different pages.
    • Update the numbering after each attempt, no change.

    Notes on the test of large document added.

    Resolve by trashing prefs & cache.

    So, for someone else, stumbling on this thread, on OS X trash (or move to a backup folder, better than practice):

    Your user home dir is $HOME

    $HOME/Library/Caches/Adobe InDesign

    $HOME/Library/Caches/com.adobe.InDesign

    $HOME/Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign

    $HOME/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.InDesign.plist

    $HOME/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.InDesign.plist.lockfile

    Who cleared it, although I was running without modification known to all prefs, so this remains a black box solution.

  • Cannot add files to the palette book InDesign CS3

    I put a book in CS3. The book was sent to someone to proofread and someone else to the index.

    Two of them were on CS4. The files are back as INX files.

    I could open the INX files and make changes, changes, etc., and save files in INDD files. Files that came back from the corrective work very well. However, files that are returned from the indexer cannot be added to a book palette. When I try to add files INDD created from files INX of the indexer to a range of book, I get a window that says: File_name.indd uses one or more plug-ins that are not currently available on your system. Cannot add this document to the book.

    A bit of work, I've tried about is to get the indexer to send me files within a range of book INX it creates. I am able to open the palette of this book (and I can add documents,) but I get a window indicating that the InDesign Enabler Plugin me is missing and the book palette features will be disabled until I have install the plug-in.

    Any ideas on how I can fix this?

    Thank you.

    Hmm. have you tried this sequence?

    1. open the INX files on your system - they will play in a new INDD file.

    2 export to INX.

    3. open this new and save as a "final" file

    It seems not only a more modern version to your use of the indexer (and thoughtfully sent you INX, because your CS3 can't open CS4 files), but a Middle Eastern version as well. Export locally to INX and opening again are a way to purge all unused information of a file; in this case, the file obtained probably exported with the notion of "use the ME Plugin", but it's a fair guess that your files do not need that at all.

  • 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.

  • Where can I save the startup for InDesign CC 2014 model?

    I want to customize the blank startup page when I create a new document in InDesign CC 2014. I create the page the way I would like it to start again, but then got lost about where to save this model. I looked under request, presets, but nothing there seems to be a place where would be a model. Can you help me with this?

    TIA,

    Ken

    I perhaps misunderstood what you mean.

    If you need to have a particular configuration, including the page size, margins, the column guides, in the face of power pages, you can configure a document preset.

    You can configure in the new Document dialog box the way you like, then click on the save the preset icon (it looks like a hard drive, next to the menu Document preset), name the preset and save it.

    To use a document preset, press Command-N and select the preset, or choose file > Document presets > [preset name] to open the predefined document.

  • Why won't save the addresses I enter the address book?

    Since we had Thunderbird, we were not able to add all of the addresses in the address book. Strange thing is, we added an address when we started, and the address is saved! But after that and since then, no other addresses are saved when add us them. Here's what happens: we add a new contact, enter the information and click OK. Thunderbird is always open, contact seems to be stored in the address book and can be accessed. But as soon as Thunderbird is closed and reopened, the address disappears and we are left with only only one address, that we've added when we started and nothing more. I hope someone can help with this!
