Hey Guys,

Is the anyway to see the duration of time spent working on a document? As well as the dates it was saved on and worked on? Please if you can be of any help, I need the data to bill a client.

Thanks

Beyond the rest of the responses here you can get a complete history of the file by ctrl+clicking or cmd+clicking on About InDesign with the file open.

You're need to use soft for employee monitoring. As example - https://www.workexaminer.com/help/categories-and-activities.html

Remember, never say you can't do something in InDesign, it's always just a question of finding the right workaround to get the job done. © David Blatner

Thank you. Do you know if that also applies to Photoshop and Illustrator?
