On new versions of Adobe programs of which I have been a loyal and addicted user for more than 20 years, it seems that the engineers pick out some of my favorite features and hide/change or eliminate them. This time it is InDesign snippets. What happened and where are they please? I love 'em.

Having thus vented, thanks in advance for help from those who know more than me,

Joe

MY BAD!

I must be having a brain fart. I attempted to save a file as a snippet. After reading your kind replies, I had to say "duh, dummy, select the object to save a snippet." Must be one of  "those days." Thanks for your indulgences and apologies for my stupidity.

Hi,

snippet files? *.idms files? Do you mean that?

Exported from InDesign? Imported or placed or dragged from the file system to your InDesign document ( CS4 to InDesign 2020 ) ?

 

Still available. Still exportable. Still importable.

What are you exactly missing?
