A freelancer has produced a document for me and this is saved as an IDML file. I cannot open this in InDesign (I have the latest update). 

 

I get the following error message 'The file is in an unknown format and cannot be opened.'

 

How do I open the file?

Why did they give you an IDML file? No need for that....get the INDD file.
