Hello, I was supposed to translate INDD files from InDesign in SDL Trados, so this file had to be saved as IDML file. Now that the translation is complete, I needed to open these IDML file back in InDesign. I discovered that some texts that I translated in Trados are missing in InDesign now. Could it be that my options in Trados were not set well before importing the indd file before translation or should I have changed something in InDesign, please? Thank you for any advice.

So since it did not work otherwise, and I had to set both 8 pt and 13 pt (leading) because of the "Enter" pressed after the 3rd line (so that the last word does not protrude), will the lines look the same in the print version as well, please?

1. Yes, Vertical justification → Align → Top 2. At the end of the 3rd line, I pressed Enter, so that the words in the lines are distributed more evenly. I have not worked with Parastyles yet, will look them up and try.

Same text frame. Thank you, but I managed it thanks to Object → Text Frame Options → Align → Top. I would also like to ask if the leading is ok in this picture: I tried setting the same leading for the 3rd and 4th line (13 pt, same text frame), but they did not look the same after that. So then I set 8 pt for the 4th line, and it looks the same now. My question is if the leading will really look the same with these 2 different settings in the final file in RGB and the print file in CMYK. Thank you

I set the same leading, but the distance between the rows is still different.

Hello, Mr. Cherney, how can I please adjust the distance between the rows in paragraphs 2 and 3, so that it is the same as in paragraph 1? I tried various options in the Paragraph menu, but it did not work. Thank you for your advice.

I tried increasing and decreasing indents, justifying and aligning the individual rows, but it moved only the whole paragraph, not the indent in the specific row.

Hello, I am currently reading this post https://helpx.adobe.com/sk/indesign/using/text-composition.html#hyphenate_text , and I cannot seem to find the mentioned Hyphenation settings in my free-trial InDesign version: I mean, I checked the "Hyphenate" box in the Paragraph menu, but I do not see the Hyphenation settings anywhere: The three dots on the right would just show fewer options. Because I need to align/justify these rows as all other rows in the paragraphs, but I do not know how yet...: Thank you for your advice.

The customer needs both print-ready PDFs in CMYK and INDD files in RGB. How can I make the PDFs from the INDD files, please?

Thank you all for your replies, but I would like to ask a quite urgent question now: I have the 7-day free trial version of InDesign and when I try to set English as the language of the User Dictionary for hyphenating words, the setting always returns to the default English. I right click on a word in the text, then Spelling → User Dictionary → Language: Slovak → Add → Done. The point is that I need the German client to get the text with split Slovak words right - so that e.g. he doesn't have German as the default language there, as a result of which the Slovak words could possibly be split incorrectly and the Slovak language could not be set for hyphenation. Could such a thing be a real threat, please? How could this be prevented or set up correctly? Thank you

No, sorry, it should have probably been screenshotted like this: The hedge on the cover page is related to the file starting with 4096, I relinked it, but as you said, there is low resolution. So how can I be sure that the cover will be as on the original cover page when I see it with low resolution now, please? Because the thing is I downloaded those files from a cloud-like website called Backstage of a German company (the primary client). Now I have to translate the files from German into Slovak for a Slovak company cooperating with the German company, which wants me to do the translation including correct formatting. People from the German company might not be very happy if they had to check if the formatting is ok for the Slovak language (I am referring here to Mr. Robert Tkaczyk's yesterday post writing that I should send the Germans the translated idmls back and have them do the 4 steps listed below). The Slovak company who should pay me says they either want translation with everything correct in InDesign or nothing (they do not want to pay additional money to a DTP/graphic expert)... And the German people might not be able to know how to perform the 4 steps that Robert mentioned...

Hello, thank you for your reply, but... Do you really mean the client (they) has to do all this? The client and me are two countries apart, it is complicated to have them do all this, unfortunately. To your first sentence: No, I have also original INDD files, but I downloaded them from "Backstage", which is the client's website for putting files online. The client has the original files saved on their computer desktop and then they uploaded them to Backstage and sent me the link to view them. For example, I do not understand why the green image (attached) is blurred even though I linked it with the original image downloaded from Backstage.

The client just sent me a link to the files on their cloud – I downloaded the indb. file of the whole catalogue and two folders – links and document fonts. I opened the indb. file in InDesign, but now I do not know how to relink, for example, the images in the catalogue with the links. When I try to open the link files, it is not possible to do it. Same for the fonts. Could anyone send another piece of advice on this, please?

"Yes. But the customer needs to either relink his external data, or you need to create an environment that reflects the customer's infrastructure." So which option is potentially more effective, please? How can the customer do the relinking, please? (So that I could send them instructions...)

Now InDesign says some fonts are activating, but nothing is happening, it is just loading.

So how can I acquire the fonts, please? I opened one of the indd files from the client in InDesign, but the cover image is blurred, there are still missing links and fonts. I have no idea how the client could send me the file in a different way. I downloaded them from their cloud. So how can I preserve all the formatting of my idml files after opening them in InDesign, please?

Yes, the fonts and links do not work now. So I guess I have to ask my client to provide me with the INDD file, so that I can save it in my PC as IDML files, and I will have to create the translation project again, unfortunately... Then I should save the translation again as IDML, open it in InDesign (would have to buy the licence) and save it as an INDD file with a different name. Is it then possible to send this new INDD file to my client by wetransfer, for example? Thank you again for your reply.
