Lightbox in InDesign CS5.5

Has anyone figured out a way/hack to have a lightbox type interaction for a stack in CS5.5? Was hoping to have the user push a button and a module pops up and closes with a close button. Thanks!

Do it in a web overlay or use an HTML article.

  • How  would you similulate the apperance of a lightbox in InDesign CS5?

    I'm creating web page design comps in InDesign and I don't have access to Photoshop, Illustrator, or Fireworks.  Is it possible to simulate a lightbox with InDesign all by itself?

    Simulate? Sure it can be done. Isn't web page comping the art of designing w/o the hassle of having to make it work as well?
    Of course you cannot make it work, but then again that's not what you are supposed to do when designing a web page.

  • Problem creating a 'used sources' list based on EXIF data in InDesign CS5

    Hello everyone,
    I recently started to use InDesign CS5 to work on school projects. These projects regularly require us to have a list of sources, not only for citations and referenced work, but also for images. As I sometimes make quite long documents, keeping track of what image is where, and where I got it from, gets tedious.
    I had the idea of generating a caption based on EXIF data, which I'd move to the pasteboard, and group it with the image. The text in the caption has a seperate, numbered paragraph style. On one of the last pages, I generate a table of contents, which the numbered paragraph style selected. I chose to display it using another paragraph style, without page numbers.
    What I want to have as the end result is:
    Table of contents
    1. <Title>. <Author> (<Creation Date>). Retrieved <Date Placed> through <Description>
    The captions display correctly, as shown above in the body of the table of contents. The table of contents itself however, shows only the numbering in front of it, and not the variables.
    I already tried converting the live captions to static captions, but that doesn't work. Does anyone have an idea how to solve this?

  • What is it about InDesign CS5 that someone would get this error message?

    Hi,
    What is is about the .swf file that is generated from the InDesign CS5 interactive workspace that someone would get the following error message when they go to view the site I created?
    "This file may contain newer information that this viewer can support. It may not open or display correctly. Adobe suggests that you upgrade to the latest versions of our Acrobat products blah blah blah."
    The site doesn't seem to work for four Mac users, but works fine for at least one PC user.
    I'm trying to figure out how to save the .swf file down to Flash Player 9, which I've done by exporting a .fla file, then adjusting the Publish setting in Flash CS5. But that throws a wrench into the works...all the animations go haywire by continuously looping and the scale of all the text elements on the first page is much larger than it should be.
    Thanks, Steve

    this usually happens when a user moves or deletes files in the finder - a sure way to upset iTunes.
    did you move or delete files in the finder ?
    I cannot locate the song.
    if you let iTunes manage your library, all your content will be in <MacintoshHD>/users/<yourname>/music/iTunes/iTunes music (or media)/music. did you look there ? tried a spotlight search ?

  • Unable to debug indesign cs5 plugin in windows

    Hi, again. Originaly posted here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/766469?tstart=0
    We are having some problems with an indesign sc5 plugin, it works perfectly in macosx but in windows it causes indesign to crash. Anyway after some trouble shooting we tried running it in debug indesign. Problem is that the debug version of indesign wont even start, it fezzes in the splash screen on "Registering xxx plug-ins". It hangs before we can write anything in log files and thatching a debugger gives nothing. Closer inspections
    revealed that all the indesign treads is in "waiting" state. Waiting for what? Don't know. Killing one of the threads allows indesign to start but it will not have loaded the plugin and we are back on square one unable to debug.
    Anyway I installed the osx version of debug indesign and starting it gives an assert like: 
    No translation of key 'com.adobe.rc.operationalmessages' to British string. 
    BreakStrToDebugger
    ASSERT_FUNC
    Examining the stack of the indesign main thread in windows gives pretty much the same thing:
    0, ntkrnlpa.exe!KiDeliverApc+0xb3
    1, ntkrnlpa.exe!ZwYieldExecution+0x19ae
    2, ntkrnlpa.exe!NtWaitForSingleObject+0x9a
    3, ntkrnlpa.exe!KeReleaseInStackQueuedSpinLockFromDpcLevel+0xb14
    4, ntdll.dll!KiFastSystemCallRet
    5, kernel32.dll!WaitForSingleObject+0x12
    6, PMRuntime.dll!ClientShowAssert+0x8d
    7, PMRuntime.dll!BreakStrToDebugger+0x15
    8, PMRuntime.dll!ASSERT_FUNC+0x117
    9, NETAPI32.dll+0xbe86972
    (as reported by the ProcessHacker process viewer)
    So the win version is trying to show an assert window but fails, locking indesign in the splash screen? Stoping indesign before any plugin execution?
    As we cant get any debug information out we don really know what the problem is, making it rather hard to debug. We have triple checked the build and linking options. Studied the plugin exports. Inserted an ridiculous amount of trace statements in the code, doesn't work in the debug version but anyway.
    Have anyone had a problem like this or know what might cause it?
    What happens in the indesign startup process, what does the “Registering plug-ins” actually do? It's not executing any plugin functions and the the initialization of the plugins doesn't happen until later.

    You are correct in that none pf the plug-in code is executed during the "Registering ### plug-ins" phase. What is done here is simply loading the plugins by reading from their resource definitions. For example, if you try to load a CS4 plug-in in InDesign CS5 or if you try to load a release plug-in in debug version you will get errors and popups here and your plugin will not load and be available (these are just example errors and may not be relevant to your case). As far as I know InDesign should not crash just because there is a problem with your plugin, but there could be bugs.
    I would recommend:
    1. Remove your plugins and verify that InDesign debug starts properly without any 3rd party extensions.
    2. Compile one of the SDK sample plugins (debug target) and make sure that InDesign still starts properly.
    3. Create a new project using DollyXs, compile it and make sure it loads in InDesign.
    4. Remove the template files and add your own source files except the basic .fr file and make sure it still loads in InDesign.
    5. Keep changing things one at a time in your .fr file and verify it still loads until it looks exactly like your original .fr file.
    Good luck.
    Note: "No translation of key 'XXX' to British string." errors is in general quite harmless. It's only a problem with the string translation and should only affect string output in menus/dialogs etc. They should of course be fixed, but can generally be ignored for a while unless an infinite ASSERT loop prevents you from debugging.

  • Cross reference or hyperlinking not working for InDesign CS5 Book to ePub

    I cannot get hyperlinks or cross reference links to work when generating an ePub from InDesign CS5. (7.0.0.355, Mac OS 10.6.2)
    Here's how to recreate a simple test demonstrating the issue.
    1. Create a new InDesign Book (File -> New -> Book)
    2. Create document one (File -> New -> Document)
    3. Create a text box and type "Table of Contents"
    4. Create document two (File -> New -> Document)
    5. Create a text box in it and type "Story One"
    6. Create a new paragraph style and assign it to the Story One text
    7. Save document 2. I just kept the name Untitled-2.xhtml
    8. Back in document 1, add a cross-reference and select document 2, the style you created, and then "Story One". "Story One" should now appear under the previously typed Table of Contents text, and when highlighed, should show it is an active cross reference in the Hyperlinks panel.
    9. Save document 1. I just kept the name Untitled-1.xhtml
    10. Add both documents to the Book and save the book.
    11. From the Book panel, select Export Book to EPUB...
    12. Save the epub file and open it in Adobe Digital Editions.
    Note that the text "Story One" appears as a hyperlink but when clicked does not switch to the document 2. It does nothing apparent when clicked.
    Looking at the XHTML source for the first document, it is immediately evident why. The filename for document 2.thml is missing.  It looks like this: <a href="#anchor-anchor">
    When it should be : <a href="Untitled-2.xhtml#anchor-anchor">
    The same thing works if you create a hyperlink instead of a cross reference.
    I note then when I use the option to go to the destinate reference in the Cross Link (hyperlink) panel, it does switch to the second InDesign docuemtn. So the cross reference is functioning (in InDesign). But the link is broken in the ePub for the above mentioned reason.
    Bug? Something I'm overlooking?
    Entire source of Untitled-1.xhtml:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
    <head>
    <title>Untitled-1.xhtml</title>
    <link href="template.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
    </head>
    <body>
    <div id="untitled-1">
    <div class="generated-style">
    <p class="basic-paragraph" xml:lang='en-us'><span class="no-style-override">Table of Contents</span></p>
    <p class="basic-paragraph" xml:lang='en-us'><span class="no-style-override"><a href="#anchor-anchor">“story one”</a></span></p>
    </div>
    </div>
    </body>
    </html>

    As far as I can tell, it has NOT yet been fixed in CS5.5.  I'm having the same problem.  I have about 90 hyperlinks to fix.
    And the explanation that Teus Dejong gives indicates it's not going to be that helpful:  "we have found that only the links in documents split by the CS5 exporter will be fixed. For books the script does only work for references to earlier documents in the book, not for forward references. This means in practice that for most books the script will not repair the links and should be seen as a means to add the year only. At the moment I see no way to repair this, because the book epub output of InDesign does not contain sufficient information to repair links referencing forward to others documents in a book."
    It's pretty discouraging.

  • InDesign CS5 file won't open

    At my work, we are working on formatting a book in InDesign. We are using the same base template for each file. I created a front matter document with a table of contents (TOC), list of figures (LOF), list of tables (LOT), acronyms, and glossary using that base template. Everything worked fine; I was able to generate the TOC, LOF, and LOT, and could work with the file with no problem. Then I saved and closed the file. Later that day, I was unable to open the file.
    The message I get includes the statement, "You may not have permission or the file may be open already."
    No one else had opened it and there are no lock files. The other person using InDesign also cannot open it. I made a copy of the file and saved it in another location and still could not open it.
    The files are all on our network. We are using InDesign CS5 and Windows7 (64-bit). The only difference between this file and the others are the modifications that I made to some TOC paragraph styles so two paragraphs could be displayed side-by-side in the TOC (i.e., Chapter 1 Introduction all on one line, where Chapter 1 comes from one paragraph and Introduction comes from another by having no leading on one paragraph style).
    Can anyone suggest a solution for this? This is rather urgent as the client needs the book by the end of next week.
    Thank you so much for your help.
    regards,
    Marina Michaels

    Yes:  The message I get says, "Cannot open (file path and name). You may not have permission or the file may be open already."
    Thanks!

  • Open a URL link in the same window as SWF file in indesign CS5

    Hello,
    I am trying to create a SWF file using indesign CS5.  I have created buttons and placed in URL links but they always open another window.  I would like to know if there is a way to have the URL open in the same window that the SWF file has been created.  I tried, putting "_self" to target it in the URL bar, but nothing works.
    Thanks in advance
    TK

    Okay, I found the code but I can't get it to work locally.  If you have a web server maybe you can upload the files (swf and html) after you Publish them:
    import flash.net.URLRequest;
    import flash.events.MouseEvent;
    var myURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest ("http://www.google.com");
    testlink.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickText);
    function clickText(myevent:MouseEvent):void {
    navigateToURL(myURL, "_self");
    you have to have on the stage a link element called "testlink" (see the code above) which would be a Movie Clip with the label testlink.  It can be anything from InDesign:  a button, a rectangle, a circle, a graphic, you get the idea.  Just select that object in Flash and label it testlink or anything you choose but if you change the name from testlink also change the name in the code snippet where the line "addEventListener" is.

  • Is it possible to print duplex from InDesign CS5?

    There is no "duplex" option in the print dialog box of InDesign. I have duplexers on both my printers. When I tried to save it as a pdf and print that way, half the page sides are oriented upside down. I don't have a choice of "Flip on long side" or "Flip on short side", which I expected to see in either Adobe reader or InDesign.
    jp

    What Jacob Bugge said.
    In InDesign CS5:
    Print (brings up window) > Printer (tab at bottom of print window; clicking brings up another window) > Layout (drop-down menu) > Duplex Printing & Margin > click "Duplex Printing" and modify Print Area and Stapling Side
    In Adobe Acrobat 9 (full version -- don't know if it's the same in Reader):
    Print (brings up window) > Copies & Pages (drop-down menu)  > Duplex Printing & Margin > click "Duplex Printing" and modify Print Area and Stapling Side
    I have a Canon printer. Don't know if all the submenus are exactly the same, but I'd imagine they're similar.

  • InDesign CS5.5 crashes when trying to open ANY CS5.5 document

    I am using InDesign CS5.5 and can't open any of my InDesign CS5.5 documents. The message "InDesign has stopped working" appears.
    Even when trying to create a new document, again the message "Adobe InDesign CS5.5 has stopped working" - close programme.
    InDesign was working perfectly on Friday. Saved and exported a file to pdf, all okay.
    Are you able to help.

    Hi Peter
    I uninstalled the whole CS5.5, downloaded and ran the cleaning thing, reinstalled the whole suite but it came up with the message that the install had errors … every other module worked except Indesign which still did the same thing .. it would open, but not an existing or new doc … below is the error log
    Did everything again.. same result
    did it again but this time also deleted every folder with reference to 5.5 and cleaned the registry  .. same result
    finally, I did it all again, but this time did NOT install Fireworks (because of the error log below), 32bit Photoshop, Flash or the Apple support thingy .. and it now works !!
    so it seems there is a problem with one or more of the above … was there an update around 24-26 May ??
    Interestingly there's no icon against the Indesign program menu listing (but it still works) but the icon is still shown against all the 'indd' files 
    We rang support about 4 hours ago, they couldn't help but were going to look into it and get back to us 'within the hour' … needless to say they didn’t .. hope this 'work around' goes onto the blog and helps others
    regards

  • How to make previous version documents(CS1 and CS3) without extension  readable in InDesign CS5

    I have some previous version documents of CS1 and CS3  on Mac  which have been saved without any extension e.g 300, CS3doc etc.
    When I open such documents in InDesign CS5 they appear to be unreadable .  Only on  selecting 'All documents' filter  I am able to open those documents.
    I want to make all such documents (which are without extension) readable with 'All Readable Documents ' also .
    How I can do that, please  help me !!!!!

    The first thing I'd do is make sure the issue is really what I suspect it is - i.e. I suspect your extension-less documents don't have the proper type and creator.
    If you fire up a Terminal window, you should be able to use the GetFileInfo command to check one of the files:
    Assume 'sampleFile' is sitting on your desktop, you'd do
    GetFileInfo ~/Desktop/sampleFile
    (not sure when/whether GetFileInfo is installed on a Mac - I think it used to be part of Apple's developer tools, but on my Snow Leopard it resides in /usr/bin)
    Check what it says for 'type' and 'creator'.
    If these are not correct, we've confirmed that that's the reason why they don't show up in your file dialog.
    If the issue is type/creator related, I can think of the following options:
    a) Change your code to accept ANY file type/extension - I suspect this would work (not tested!):
    openFileDialog->AddType( '????' );
    If memory serves right, '????' should be accepted as a wildcard.
    b) correct the file types BEFORE they are viewed in the File Dialog - for example, if these files are in a very specific folder somewhere, you might be able to scan the folder, and correct their type and creator (e.g. iterate through all extensionless files in folder 'xyz' and change their type and creator). A lot depends on how those files get there, and whether they are tied to a specific folder or not - are they 'old' files, or are they being generated in some workflow? If they're all over a user's system or all over a file server, such pre-scanning and cleaning up file types approach will be a no-go.
    Cheers,
    Kris

  • Can anyone help with isolating the cause of an InDesign CS5 crash?  It's intermittent...

    Hi All,
    I've got a client that's running into an intermittent crashing problem with InDesign.  Ordinarily "intermittent" points to hardware, but we wanted to rule out bad software first, especially as InDesign is the ONLY application that's crashing on this system.   The crashing doesn't seem to correspond to any given task that's executed within InDesign either.  This is an iMac 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5 (mid 2011 model), 8 GB of RAM.  Original this iMac was running Snow Leopard with InDesign CS5 (7.0.4), and crashing fequently then.  For numerous reasons including the crashing we did an erase and install of the OS, this time installing 10.8.2, and a fresh install of CS5 and ran all updates from Adobe (to 7.0.4), and then ran a Disk Permissions repair (we have not updated to 10.8.3 due to reports I've seen of more crashing with InDesign CS5).  Fonts and InDesign application support files from ~/Library were migrated over manually, but no other user data.  The crashing occurs within two user accounts on this fresh OS (one of which was created to troubleshoot with as a clean environment) so isn't likely user account related but due to fonts that may not be confirmed.  Being that it's intermittent it's been quite hard to track down.  Linotype Font Explorer is installed on this system and I have just now disabled the font activation plugins in case that is part of the problem here; haven't had a chance yet to let the system run without those to see if the problem is resolved.  Two recent crash logs (below) show different activity causing the crash (I've included thread 0 only, but can post more if requested; my experience has been that thread 0 will usually give you what you need, but given that we're seeing different cuases here I'm at a loss).  We have tried fresh RAM in the system in case this was related to bad memory, and that made no difference.  Font caches for both applications and the OS have been cleared and fonts showing any missing printer font files have been disabled.  Any help would be greatly apprecaited.  
    Many thanks,
    Mike

    Thanks, Peter. 
    The "link related" and "text related" crashes were what I interpretted here, too, though I'm at a loss on how to proceed given that this is a fresh system and applications.  This is happening with multiple InDesign projects in a design office environment where many others work on the same files and none of the other computers are having problems with these files.  I've removed the same files listed (thank you for those) before and did so effectively with creating the new user account to test with, but it had no effect.  I just tried again though, as these files could easily have becone corrupt again if they were being written to when InDesign crashed.  Will let you know if that makes any difference.  I've also gone through and completely cleaned out the fonts again and once more cleared the font caches.  If need be I'll reboot this system into safe mode and try that way.
    Best,
    Mike

  • InDesign CS5.5 crashes when trying to open or create files on Yosemite

    Hi,
    I've just recently migrated to a new iMac running Yosemite. Photoshop CS5.1, Illustrator 5.1 and Bridge 5.1 are working fine but I'm having major issues with InDesign CS5.5. Every time I try to open an existing file or create a new one the programme freezes and I have to force quit.
    I've trawled the forums and have done everything mentioned including uninstalling/reinstalling, removing temporary cache files and preferences, removing Data Store, deleting the Adobe font list, and removing the SING component.
    I ran Activity Monitor and have uploaded the details to Sample of InDesign - Pastebin.com and the Crash Report to http://pastebin.com/KdEEWadj
    Please help, I'm getting desperate!
    Thanks,
    Dan

    CS5.x is not compatible to Yosemite. It may or may not run, if it does never without problems.
    Adobe applications should never be installed via migration. It is always making problems in the long run. If you have done so, deinstall them immediately, run Adobe's Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool (available on Adobe's Website) and install any application from it original installer.
    I recommend to upgrade to a CC subscription. CS6 might also work, but it is now very old and 2 to 3 versions after CS6 have been released. If you get a new system upgrade it is NOT guaranteed that it will work as CS6 is now at the end if not out of its product life cycle.

  • How do I save image and text as a single image in InDesign CS5.0?

    How do I save an image and text as one image in InDesign CS5.0? NOT 5.5.
    I need to save the image as a 72-dpi, jpg file for ePub purposes. I designed a book and am handing it off to someone for ePub.
    This is what I've tried:
    1) Copied from InDesign, pasted into a PhotoShop doc as a Smart Object. Saved it as 72 dpi jpg, then imported back into ID.
    2) Took a screenshot of ID page, placed it in PS, saved as 72 dpi, imported into ID
    3) Saved page as a PDF from InDesign, then saved PDF as 72 dpi jpg, then imported into ID.
    4) Save page as a PDF from InDesign, placed into Photoshop and saved
    as 72 dpi, then imported into ID.
    5) Saved as an EPS from InDesign, placed in PS, then imported back to ID.
    In all cases, the type looks terrible. It doesn't seem to matter whether I copy or place into Photoshop, though placing is slightly better.
    HELP!!!

    In all cases, the type looks terrible. It doesn't seem to matter whether I copy or place into Photoshop, though placing is slightly better.
    Naturally what you did will result in rasterized text. Did you preview with high quality settings?
    Are you sure the people who will handle that downstream need pixel images and do you have the exact pixel dimensions needed?
    Why did you place the image back in Indesign, by the way? 

  • InDesign CS5 for Mac crashes on opening file. Have replaced References and all other suggestions.

    I am having a problem with InDesign CS5 crashing when I try to open a file that formerly opened just fine. Even restored versions from Time Machine or that I had a backup saved on an external hard drive will not open. I recently had to reconstruct a 90 page magazine for the same reason. I heard that Extensis Suitcase might be causing the problem so I disabled the plug-in, but still can't get the file open. The file in question is full of tables and would be a nightmare to redo. I am running Snow Leopard. It will open briefly and tell me that fonts are missing, then crash.
    This is the first part of the crash report:

    I have already disabled the Extensis plug-in and am activating the fonts
    manually from within Extensis. It's the very latest version, Suitcase
    Fusion 3, and it warps my chops that it doesn't play nice with InDesign.
    I got rid of the Mindsteam grammar plug-in also and sent a tersely
    worded letter to the vendor. When you pay nearly $200 for a plug-in, you
    expect it to work. I don't have time for this aggravation! I truly
    appreciate the help I've gotten here. This has certainly discouraged me
    from using any third-party plug-ins. I was ready to go back to Quark
    Xpress. For the moment, everything is behaving.
