Empty images Indesign publish online

[joe mcc]

Hi,

Some vectors pasted across from illustrator stopped displaying when published online from and indesign doc. Have tried pasting in again and linking as ai files, sometimes this improves things but usually at the cost of losing another image like a linked logo... it shows an empty box where the image should be displayed, any ideas?

When you plan to publish online, save the AI files as SVG and place them as LINKED files.

Open vectors, what you have, are mostly at the end of the document, separated path by path and will not make sense any more.

reluctant to do that but will try, we've had issues with SVGs scaling down when publishing online. most noticeably when logos are placed in, they will display at a much smaller size...

Take care that the artboard has the same size as the ontent has.

[joe mcc]

that's madness... you shouldn't have to resize the artboard to get this stuff to work. also, on the next page, i need to use the sections of the brain as buttons with rollovers, is this possible with links??? 

Thanks for your help so far tho

I am talking about the Illustrator artboard, not the InDesign.

[joe mcc]

yes, so am i... for example you'd have to make an SVG logo at every document size... crazy. i'll give the brain a go at size, thanks. it doesn't explain why the logo (rectangular box on right of page) isn't showing tho, this is an AI file, so is the intel logo, which displays...

[joe mcc]

just an update as SVGs, even added the logo as an SVG...

has this been listed as an upvote somewhere? we do loads of epubs and this doc doesn't work as a pdf due to the builds, so need a quick fix...
