Hi, I have the same problem and we have more than 25000 existing InDesign files (version 14.0.3). I also know the batch converter from Peter Kahrel. It works fine but if you have a lot of files it will also take a lot of time. So this is not a easy and fast way. I think that adobe should offer a better solution. With every version change you have this problem again. Regards, Marcel

Hello Adobe, every day we are working with InDesign books and we have more than 25000 existing InDesign files (Version 14.0.3). With every version change we have a lot extra work. Because before we can load existing files (previous version) into a book (new version) we have to open and save all the existing files with the new version. I have done this nonsense multiple in the past and now i have to do it again. We are working with InDesign since CS2. Every version change generates so many extra work. ADOBE, please can you offer a easy and fast way to transfer existing files (.indd) from a previous version to the new version. Open and save ist not a solution. Perhaps a extra tool, a script ore a comparable alternative. Marcel

Hi,
we are working with InDesign since the version CS2. Now CC 2019.
Every day we are using the book funktion. Inside the book are up to 150 files. The size of one file is abot 4 MB.
When we make an export to a PDF file it takes a lot of time because InDesign opens every file in the background. And when InDesign closes all the files it takes also a lot of time and it slows down the computer.
This is very ... and not up to date.
(PC: Windows 10 64 Bit, Intel Xeon 3.6 GHz, 8 GB RAM)
Is there a solution.

Hi Anshul, OS: Windows 10 / 64 Bit Save and Save As ist working. No errors. The IDML export also works. Nice idea to use the IDML export like a workaround. I think that the IDML export is the only way to open a CC 2019 file in CC 2018. But if you have more than 20.000 CC 2018 files which should be placed into a book in CC 2019 it is not possible to open and safe each file in CC 2019 step by step. The IDML export could also be a solution. Maby in combination with a script. This will take a lot of time and work (thx adobe).

Hello LIL11, You are right. It is not possible to open a CC 2019 file in InDesign CC 2018. Today I have the same problem. Every time when adobe makes a new version it is not possible to oben a new file in an older software version. This is not very customer-oriented but this is adobe. And when you are working with CC 2019 it is not possible to put a CC 2018 file into a book. First you have to save the file in CC 2019. This is bullshit, ..... Every day i have to work with books in InDesign and now I have to save more than 20.000 files into the CC 2019 version. About your problem, if you want to open a CC 2019 file in CC 2018 you must save it as a IDML file. Then you can open the IDML file in CC 2018 and save it as a .indd file.
