Hello Everyone,

We are excited to introduce the new "Export InDesign documents to Adobe Express" feature in InDesign.
Now, you can export your InDesign documents to Adobe Express for fast and simple online editing. This feature enables Adobe Express users, including skilled communicators and non-professional designers, to modify and personalize InDesign templates. It also allows InDesign documents to open as native, editable files within Adobe Express.

 

Steps to export InDesign Docs to Adobe Express

  1.  Open an InDesign document.
  2.  Go to File > Export to Adobe Express. You can now easily edit the exported InDesign document in Adobe Express.
  3.  To gain better control, you can lock the elements in Adobe Express .
    4. To share it with others using Adobe Express, select Share, add the names, and specify the access level.

Hi all

 

Updated to latest InDesign 2025, but this new function doesn't seem to be working on the French version (iMac + Mac OS Monterey). I get two error messages (see screen captures) with no further indication of what to do - Just to "Close" the window. Doesn't seem to be a language version problem, more a technical one.

 

After clicking Export to Adobe Express, it goes through the file preparation process but falls over near the end and no files are added to the cloud space. The first error message reads "InDesign couldn't execute this workflow. Try again later".  The second is regarding the conversion of incorporated V4 colour profiles en V2 profiles during the creation of a PDF.

 

Any ideas. This is a really useful addition to InDesign, it would be a shame if it doesn't work.

 

Regards

Rob

I have no idea why, but could we perhaps interpret the error message "We do not currently support converting content in this language" in the way, that the language formatting or the applied font of text on the page, perhaps (my guess) Chinese, Devanagari, using a "complex script", is something that cannot be handled?

 

What kind of text is on your page?

Hi @GraphifyPro ,

what's the localized language your InDesign 2025 is installed with? What's your operating system?

Just did a little test with my German InDesign 2025 with "Export to Adobe Express" and cannot see the error.

 

Tested on InDesign 2025 version 20.0.0.95, macOS 12.7.1 with a MacBook Pro 16" with M1 processor from 2021.
