Cannot export files if a linked image is large

I had a similar problem, converting a large TIFF to PSB helped.

Hi ​@David3787643819g2 , Also, are you linking or embedding the .tif? How much RAM is available, and when you select the image, what is the image’s Effective PPI listed in the Links panel?

Hi ​@David3787643819g2,

Thanks for reaching out and sorry to hear you're running into this issue.

I tested this on InDesign 21.4.1 using a large TIFF sample that I created in Photoshop, but I wasn't able to reproduce the behavior on my end.

Could you please confirm your operating system? Also, does this happen with one particular TIFF, a specific set of TIFFs, or all linked TIFF files larger than 1 GB? It would also be helpful to know which application created those TIFF files.

If possible, please share the affected TIFF or a packaged InDesign document containing it by following these steps:

If the files are confidential, feel free to send them to me via DM using any public cloud-sharing service such as Google Drive or Dropbox.

Additionally, could you please share:

• A screenshot of the PDF export preset/settings you're using.

• Whether the issue still occurs after saving the document as IDML, reopening it, and exporting again.

These details will help us investigate the issue further.

Looking forward to your update.

Thanks,
Abhishek
