Question

Move linked images to Adobe library.

I would like to copy the linked images (703 images) of my Indesign Documnet, which are currently located in a local folder, into my Adobe library and link them accordingly. Since I don't want to link every single image manually, I am looking for a simple way to do this.

If you're trying to moved your linked images ito a CC Library, that won't be easy to do without some fancy scripting. InDesign cannot claim the linked images as its own assets, it would have to be added as Photoshop assets, and then somehow linked back to the InDesign file.

 

It's pretty easy to drag InDesign attributes like swatches into a library but not something that is linked.

Hi @clausl43052572 , By Library do you mean the CC Libraries panel or a saved Library file (.indl)?
