Bonjour
Un graphiste m'a communiqué un fichier indesign (une couverture de livre avec images et texte) mais les textes sont des liens PSD. Pour des raisons de commodité je voudrais que ces éléments soient du texte Indesign.
Y a-t-il une solution pour exporter le texte du PSD vers indesign en conservant les attributs de caractères et paragraphe, sans devoir tout refaire manuellement ?
- Je peux copier-coller le texte mais je perds la mise en forme.
- Je peux copier le style dans la bibliothèque CC puis appliquer le style sur indesign mais cela ne fonctionne pas toujours
-J'ai vu qu'il existait des options d'exportation de calques, mais en PNG, donc en tant qu'image, mais le but est d'intervenir sur le texte une fois dans indesign
Existe-t-il une solution ?
Merci pour vos avis éclairés.

No, there is no way. You have tried several good ideas, but they are incomplete at best.
You might try to open the PSDs in Photoshop and re-save-as them as Photoshop PDF file format. That way the hi-resolution of the typesetting can be preserved if your relink the PS PDFs into your ID layout.
Outside of that, you would have to recreate the texts in InDesign. If it is a cover, that might not take too long.

Thank you for your answer. Indeed it's not very long to recreate the texts, but I'm always surprised when there is a "default" in the so complex and efficient Adobe galaxy 🙂 Maybe I'm just more and more lazy or demanding !
Have a good day

In my opinion, there should exist a feature to translate paragraph and character styles and content between the three different text engines of ID, AI, and PS.

It might be possible to script a transfer of Photoshop text properties to an InDesign Paragraph Style—Photoshop has a .textItem property for text objects with its very basic style properties—but going the otherway would be next to impossible. There’s a huge difference in type setting capabilities between the two apps. An InDesign Paragraph Style has 300+ properties while a Photoshop style has less than 50:
Going from PS to ID how do we handle Roman Hanging Punctuation? (InDesign has Optical Margin Alignment but no hanging punctuation)

Hello. Thnak you for your interesting answer. I don't know anything about script unfortunately but it's good to know. Thank you for taking time.
