InDesign cannot package documents when links are stored in Google Drive (macOS / CloudStorage issue)

Annabelle,

Is the InDesign document on the computer or is it stored in Adobe cloud as an .INDDC file? Remember that .INDDC files cannot package. They have to be a local .INDD file.

It looks like you encounter this known issue on Tahoe:

Until it's fixed, I recommend to work on Sequoia (I believe that the easiest way would be to install Sequoia on a separate partition or external drive and work from there until the issue is fixed.)

Hi @Annabelle_Blin2331,

Thanks for the update. I understand how confusing this feels. To help us clearly see what is happening on your setup, could you please share a short screen recording showing the full workflow from your packaging attempt until the error appears?

Whenever you have a moment, please upload the recording here, and I'll take it forward with the team.

Looking forward to your update.

Abhishek

Did you set the google drive folder and/or files to "Make Available Offline"?
