Ich bin von CS 6 nun auf die Creative Cloud umgestiegen. Wie kann ich meine alten Indesign Dokumente weiterbearbeiten? Schriften aktualisieren? Wer oder was kann mir helfen?

    Hi @annemarie_7301,

     

    Welcome to Creative Cloud! It's great to hear you've made the switch from CS6. You’ll be happy to know that your old InDesign documents from CS6 can be opened and edited in the latest version of InDesign without any problem. Just double-click the file or use File > Open from within InDesign to bring them in.

    When you open the document, InDesign might notify you about any missing or outdated fonts. If that happens, you can update them manually or use Adobe Fonts. Go to the Creative Cloud desktop app, click on the 'Fonts' tab(on top-right), and you’ll find thousands of fonts you can activate with just one click. These will then be available automatically in InDesign.

    If anything looks off or you're unsure whether the document converted properly, feel free to share a few more details like the version of InDesign you're using now and what kind of issues (if any) you're seeing when opening the CS6 files.

     

    Let me know how it goes or if you have any further questions.

    I've moved your post from Using the Community to the InDesign forum. 

     

    What is the alert message that you are getting?
