Hi,

Layers in psd file saved on Photoshop 24.7 version are not visible in InDesign (2019).

This same happened with psd saved in Photoshop beta version 25.

I have to use InDesign 2019, fresh version not allowed.

Hi, I'm having the same problem. Looks like Photoshop 23 is not compatible with Indesign CC2019.
I opened Indesign 2023 and my layers are there.
The same image in Indesign 2019, the layers are not visible.

Someone please help confirm or clarify if it's a compatibiliy problem with Indesign CC 2019.

Hello Kevin again,

 

I confirm, in File Handling "Always" is set.

And a new test with psd file with layers gave exactly this same result as previouse ones.

Thank you for trying to find solution.

 

Kind regards

Hi @slawomirk I know you said you always do but can you go back to Photoshop, verify that under File Handling "Always" is set for Photoshop Compatibility and then save out a new test .psd with layers? If someone else did an initial save without it - it could be affecting the file.

Anytime I've seen this it's been because that option was turned off when saving.

Hi D Fosse,

Thank you for the question.

When I want to use Object Layer Options in InDesign "Show Layers" is empty".

What exactly do you mean by "no layers visible"?

Does the file display at all? What's missing, exactly?

Hi @slawomirk Please confirm you are using "Maximize Photoshop Compatibility" when saving.
