BobLevine  wrote The fact that you can get this thing open at all in any version is surprising. For sure, it doesn't help, but basically, InDesign should be able to handle it. But the probability, that a small bug in InDesign will cause a side effect is much higher with files of that size.And opening, saving, navigation inside the file should be slow up to unworkable. I agree with your recipe: linking the graphics will be much more desirable to keep InDesign and the computer system happy. ... View more

I have a document with 2.7x8 m which is definitively to big for exporting as a pdf. you are scratching the design limits of PDF and JPEG files with this.

You may try saving the file as an IDML (file->save as...) file and reading that file into 2017. If the file contains something "corrupt" then you could walk around this with the IDML file. But I suppose it is anyhow interesting for Adobe looking into your (corrupt) file. ... View more

The second possibility is, to detach the elements from the master page (CTRL-SHIFT-click on Windows CMD-SHIFT-click on OSX I suppose) and then to edit the detached elements. This depends on the use of the master page for your specific application. As this does not seem to be the case here, you can also have some element locked. The cannot be changed until unlocked. Either they are on a layer on its own and the layer is locked, or they are individually locked. On the layer palette, you need to click the little triangle. Locked items are marked with a lock at the side. ... View more

Up to my understanding, the data-merge feature is very basic. If you need a full-fledged application for database publishing, I would think to look into more complex packages. You will, at least, need to do some scripting yourself. ... View more

No! I was cleaning up a messy file from one of my colleagues to give it a straight paragraph structure. The file has been taken over from early versions and modified and modified again, and nobody took care to clean-up the file to something clean and straight. But I need that, as soon as I add a second language layer in a multilanguage document. I create a base for each language and define all styles as dependent directly or indirectly from this style. I have a paragraph style A, defining a bunch of paragraph properties. Paragraph style B relies on paragraph A but changes a bunch of properties. Now I want to reset the kerning and or other properties back to what is defined in style A. I have 2 possibilities: RESET TO BASE and recreate the (wanted) differences (what btw I did in my case, as the difference was basically only the character colour) or I could manually adapt the parameter to what is defined in the base (like changing the paragraph language from US English to UK English as used in the base). The first method supposes that the changes to the child paragraph style are not too important, the second method supposes that you know the parameters as they are defined in the parent style (you know what has been changed, but you do not know the original values). It would be nice to be able to just "delete" (or reset to base for one field only) the overwrite as you can do with character styles for using the paragraph defined parameters. Character styles depending on a parent are the same, except that thy tend to be easier to handle. The problem is also present for object styles, but as they are not so extensively used, I have fewer "problems" with them. I hope this describes the problem better than the short form. ... View more

I can confirm that I have experienced problems with files containing"special" characters, like umlaut-characters or accented characters (ü, é, etc), when transferring the files from Windows to OSX. But this did not influence the packaging feature. I would suggest that file access time-outs are not adapted for the mass of data InDesign wants to collect. ... View more

That's OK when I want to reset all to basic. Indeed I did as this and reattributed the different formatting changes, I needed the styles to have. My document was easy. So that was not the problem. I was more thinking about a feature like in character styles, where you can reset an overwrite to the underlying paragraph styling.... ... View more

This sounds like black magic. There is no way (in my limited computer understanding) having an InDesign exported as a PDF and having that PDF showing up as a different file. You are sure that the export paths are correct? To eliminate the black magic: Do your "save as" ... move the original files to a stick or external disk ... disconnect that disk. Also: Look at the file creation and modification dates. Also: Apply a watermark (with the master page design), something flashy to eliminate the possibility, that you are looking to the wrong places. I know it sounds silly, but it happened to me, that with slight changes, I did not distinguish the version a and b of my designs. ... View more

If photos are blurry after import, you are looking at a low res proxy image, not the real one. This happens to me sometimes in Bridge, when I'm working on our VERY slow network file share. For this it takes a moment to update the proxy image with something more accurate. However images do not get blurry just by importing them. I suppose, you just imported the pictures to your Lightroom database, without copying them to your internal disk and then disconected the drive before Lightroom could create the HR proxy images. I suppose that reconnecting the external disk willl solve that problem. But please be aware, that in this case the original pictures stay on the external disk and need to be backed-up somehow. ...
