    For some file types there aren’t any import options. Other file types cannot be placed as “linked”. For PSD files, import options only matter when you embed them. I have tried SVG and DOCX and for those either “Linked” or “Import options” was disabled when placing. For PSD that should probably be the case as well.

     

    Which files did you try?

    Yes, some do but SVGs etc don’t. Its odd as surely any placed file should show in Links panel for relinking if edited?
