Hello, several months ago I upgraded to version 2023 of InDesign. Since then I've been having problems with one of my files: I cannot copy pages from this file to other files. I don't have a problem copying pages from the 2022 version of this file. I tried to save the 2023 version of the file to IDML format, but I couldn't even load that file. I would appreciate any help to solve this problem.

 

Best regards,

Will

Do you mean that you couldn't OPEN the file? That suggests that the file has become corrupted. Saving to IDML from a file sometimes allows corruption to be fixed, but if you can't even open it, it may be too badly damaged. Do you have a backup you can open?

I couldn't load the IDML file. I can load the 2023 INDD file. I can't copy pages from the 2023 INDD file to other INDD files.

The 2022 version of the file seems fine. However, when I open it in version 2023 of InDesign it seems to get corrupted upon conversion (can't copy pages to other files).

Can you share this file? Or even all of them? Of course on priv.
