Ciao a tutti, a qualcuno è mai successo che sparissero elementi dal file di lavoro InDesign? 

Ieri ho lavorato sul catalogo di un mio cliente, salvato il lavoro come al solito, questa mattina, aprendolo, metà del catalogo non aveva più gli elementi testo inseriti. 

Ho provato già a lavorare sulle visualizazzioni, livelli etc e niente. Il file infatti non mi da errori. Sono semplicemente spariti, come se non li avesse caricati.

Or, are you using some Cloud storage service - and by accident opened older version of your document?

 

Most of the Cloud Services offer so called versioning.

Hi @camilla31057271q1xf,

 

Were you able to resolve the issue after trying the suggestions from the experts, or are you still facing the problem?

If the issue persists, could you share more details as previously asked? Specifically:

Is this happening with multiple files or just one?

Where is the affected file stored (local drive, external drive, remote server, or cloud)?

Have you tried exporting to IDML and reopening the file?

Let us know, and we’d be happy to assist further!

What is the size of your document - on your drive? 

 

How long have you been working on this file - with the same name? 

 

When was the last time you've saved your document with a new name? 

 

It's possible, that your document got corrupted. 

 

When you do just Save - InDesign saves Undo History - which is no longer available after you close your document - but is preserved as part of the document - making your document bigger and slower and prone to corruption.

 

Try IDMLing to fix your document - export as IDML, open, save with a new name - do not overwrite your original file. 

 

IDMLing might not bring back last changes - but will fix your document anyway. 

 

Then, start doing Save As with a new name at the end of the day - then, next day, work on the saved copy.

Hi @camilla31057271q1xf

 

Would you mind sharing the version of InDesign and the details of the OS being used? Is the issue specific to a particular file or happening with multiple files? Is it happening with a newly created file as well? Do you see any pattern in the objects disappearing in the file, e.g., a particular type of element vanishing? Once it vanishes, how do you get it back? Also, where is the affected file being stored, local drive, remote location, external drive, or on the cloud?

 

Let me know the details to move forward.
