I want to export a CS6 document for editing in CS3. How does it work?

First save as IDML, then open on indesing cs4 and export to INX.

Do illustrator cs6 document open in illustrator cs5?

do illustrator cs6 document open in illustrator cs5?

Yes, they do, but of course certain features will get converted/ expanded/ flattened and may not be editable. To increase compatibility, save it as a CS5 file from CS6.

Will updating from CS6 to CC Indesign cause any unwanted changes to existing CS6 documents?

Will updating from CS6 to CC Indesign cause any unwanted changes to existing CS6 documents?

The update itself will not affect exisiting files, but if you open and save them in CCC you will no longer be able to open them in CS6.

How do I downsave InDesign CS6 documents to InDesign CS5?

Is there a way to downsave my InDesign CS6 documents to be opened up by someone who is on InDesign CS5?

So is the best option to save it to pdf??
That depends on what you want.
Want to send it to a print shop? Want to send it to someone who is going to provide editorial commentary? Want to send it to someone who is going to actually edit text? The best option is not obvious to a forum full of random strangers if we don't know your selection criteria. If, from your original post, you need your document
to be opened up by someone who is on InDesign CS5?
then PDF by itself may the worst option. I'd suggest that you File -> Package your CS6 file, make sure all linked files are included, and give them an IDML file. And, because the IDML file won't match your CS6 INDD perfectly if you've used any tools new in CS6, give 'em a PDF too. So maybe the best option is "all of the above."

AppleScript to check all pages within one Indesign (CS6) document have same size.

I have bunch of InDesign (CS6) documents containing different page sizes (some are designed for a particular device and some are designed for multiple devices using alternate layouts). I need to assure all page sizes are same before I run a particular script.
So I need a Applescript which can request a folder location of closed files and then open and run through the InDesigns in that folder (ignoring any other files) and then open a text file report saying all page sizes are same or not. (Sorry! for my English)
Any help is much appreciated!

sure,
still no error-handling included, so use on own risk ;-) ...

When i open a new illustrator cs6 document color swatches do no appear in the swatch panel. MAC 10.9.3 user

my color swatch do not appear in the swatch panel when i open a new cs6 document. MAC 10.9.3 user

Swatches are included in the New documents profiles that are included in the "Profile" menu. Have you been selecting a profile from there deliberately? What happens if you do so now - select for instance "Print" or "Web"?
If documents still don't contain swatches and you're certain you didn't change the document profiles, then they might have been corrupted.

Instant Message Hyperlink Within CS6 Document

Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone is aware of a way to create an instant message hyperlink within an Indesign CS6 document.
The document is being produced for my firm and it is for internal use only, we all use Lync 2010 so there should be no problem with using sip:[email protected] (in the same way you would use email:[email protected]) as the hyperlink text - I've used this in other applications and it works great. The problem with Indesign is it requires that you stipulate the type of hyperlink you are creating i.e URL, email etc.
By the way (in case anyone has any other suggestions) the reason I want to do this is to create a live chat button within the document. I will be exporting the document as a SWF.
Thanks in advance
Shaun

I just tried this myself, and the keyboard shows when touching an email address link in an SMS and opening Mail. I'm using iOS 4.1 beta, so I can't be sure if there is a bug in 4.0 or 4.0.1.
However, if resetting didn't work, try restoring in iTunes using a backup, or as a new iPhone if necessary.
Note, that if your phone is jailbroken or hacked to unlock, all bets are off and restoring may brick your phone.

Photoshop CS6. Save for Web Problem - Don't remember folder location

Hi!
Found one more problem with Save For Web in Photoshop CS6.
Example:
1. New Document
2. Choose - Save for web
3. In dialog window Photoshop CS6 offer to save in - os My Document Folder
4. Ok, every time I don't really need to save in os folders - I save files to my folders. So, change folder ...for example to disc D
5. Create another New document
6. Choose Save for web
7. And.... - Photoshop CS6 offer to save my file in os My Documents AGAIN !!!
So, in fact it's real uncomortable!!! ...if I save different files for web frequently ....I need every time change My Documents....it makes me nervous.......
Here - compare with CS3: CS3 remember "old" folder location even at another session (for example - after reload os)
Is there any fix this problem?
p.s. Testing on:
OS - windows 7 64 bit
cs6 - 64 bit extended
cs3 - 64 bit extended

Noel, Yes! In your example everything works like on your video. May be my explanation was not so clear, so...I'm trying to describe in more details.
I don't know how to make video & animated gif by capture the screen...so I'll try to explain by words
1. Start CS6
2. Make New Document
3. Save for Web (save parametres are: JPEG, HIGH etc....I think it doesn't matter)
4. CS6 offer "My Documents"
5. Change the way to "Disc D"
6. Save it by name for example "Untitled-1".... & close window "Save for web"
7. Choose "Save for Web" again
....So, at this step - CS6 remember my current location "Disc D" even I open other file & use command "Save for web"...it saves to Disc D. Everything is ok.
....continue:
8. Shut down the CS6
9. Run it again
10. Create new file or....even open saved file on disc D in previous session - "Untitled-1"
11. Save for Web
So, it's final: CS6 offer the "My documents" AGAIN
....continue:
12. Run CS6 - Make New File - Save for Web to disc D by name "Untitled-1"
13. Keep the photoshop session & create new document...let's call it "Untitled-2" - so, now I have 2 files opened in CS6: "Untitled-1" (it was saved on disc D before) & new "Untitled-2"
14. So if I'll try to save second file "Untitled-2" fo web CS6 offer the way "My documents" AGAIN!
p.s. Tryied to do the same on CS3 - Shut down CS3 2-3 times, opened different files, create new docs - there's no trouble. In global - CS3 remember last way (in my case it's "Disc D") & doesn't change it by itself. In fact working in CS3 I din't feel any problems with this command "Save for Web", that's the reason I didn't write any questions on forums etc..... But starting to try CS6 I really feel it makes the work to change every time the folder ways not so comfortable...so I wrote the question here
p.s. 2 In spite of I didn't work in CS4-CS5 cause it were not comfortable in my opinion....now I wanted to test "save for web" in CS5. Trouble is the same even during one session:
1. Run CS5
2. Create new document
3. Save for web - CS5 offer "My Dociment", change it to "disc D" - save - ok
4. Shut down, run CS5 again
5. Create New, or even Opened old saved file to disc D (for example from step 3) - CS5 offer the way "My documents" again
I hope this my explanation was more clear to understand

Can Photoshop CS6 Extended save uncompressed DICOM files?

In CS4 and CS5 Extended layered documents saved as DICOM (.dcm) were uncompressed and could be opened in another imaging program that I use frequently (ImageJ) without complaint. It appears that CS6 Extended saves DICOM files in a compressed format which cannot be directly opened in ImageJ and, as I recall, some other DICOM viewers.
Does anyone know if there is a way to change to uncompressed DICOM saves? I've looked for save options, but cannot see anything relevant.

Monitor the file I/O with tools like Sysinternals' System Monitor and check what's causing the problem. Could be a mundane permissions problem with your temporary folders or otehr resource problem.

I have CC Indesign CS6, but client has CS3 and wants CS3 files.

I have CC Indesign CS6, but client has CS3 and wants CS3 files. Can I access earlier versions through CC to do the 'downsave' thing? Any workarounds?

You're a bit of a bind.
To save backwards you need to File>Export and choose IDML
But you will need to find someone with InDesign CS4 or CS5 as that is the versions that will allow to File>Export and choose INX.
INX is the only version that can be opened in CS3.
To be clear - the client should really update to the same version as you - as with each version the text engines are different, so there will be different line endings and perhaps even overset text depending on the layouts etc.
Plus any new feature in CS6 that was not in Cs5.5 or earlier versions will be stripped out - and going back to CS3 there are a few things which could alter the layout significantly.
I suggest the client upgrade to the latest version. Or if you can find a CS3 version online to purchase for yourself - either way - you should both work on the same version of the software.

Does photoshop cs6 not save over files that are also open in cs5?

I started a project in CS5, saved it, left it open, then opened the same file in CS6. Then I started steadily working on the file in CS6 for about 20 minutes. I saved frequently while working in CS6. Then Photoshop crashed, I believe because I had several smart objects open at once. However, when I checked the file I had been saving, it was still in an identical state to when I stopped working on it in CS5. Not only that, but the "recovered file" was about 10 minutes behind in CS6.
This is really frustrating.

I don't know what went wrong for you but you are correct that it's normally possible for CS6 to save over a file that's open in CS5, and vice versa, and the same thing is possible with many other apps.
Furthermore, some apps watch for changes being made to a file which they have open and will automatically update the version of the file which they hold in memory with the modified version that another app has written to disc.
Of course, there are apps, databases for example, which do lock files which they have open.
None of that helps you, but just letting you know that you weren't wrong to expect your work to be saved.

Getting files from a business that uses Photoshop CS6. I use CS3 and have text problems

Hi, I'm getting files from a business that uses Photoshop CS6. I use CS3 and when I edit the text, the text moves to a different location even off screen.
Anyone know how to fix this?
It makes it hard to copy the text and imposible to change the color or make corrections.
This just started when they went to Photoshop CS6.
Thanks,
Jeffery

Ask the folks supplying you with files whether they've updated to the latest version... There were problems with Photoshop CS6 13.0.0. saving text layers in jumbled-up fashion.

Is the MP4 export in Premiere CS6 better than in CS3 ?

I am thinking of upgrading from CS3 to CS6 Premiere Pro.
The CS3 exporting MP4 is not that good, and I actually find Sony Vegas does a better job. Is the Premiere Pro export in CS6 better than in CS3?
Also, are there any issues importing CS3 projects into CS6 ?

I upgraded from CS3 to CS6.
The H.264 (MP4) exports are so much better it is amazing. There used to be tutorials on how to get good YouTube videos. Now we just export to a YouTube (or Vimeo) preset in HD and it shows up darn near perfect.
I can import CS3 projects into CS6 without a problem.

Can't save illustrator cs3

I can't save illustrator CS3 in my Toshiba Satellite laptop P4(M) 1.7 GHz with memory 1.5GB under Window XP Service Park 2 (Home Addition) and alot of HD free space. When I save CS3, can't save illustrator CS3 error massage dialog box appear. Follow are I can read from that error massage window.

Mmh, yeah, sounds familiar but for the life of it I cannot reme,ber the solution. I believe it's documented in the knowledgebase on the support pages and hinges on some VersionCue stuff being wrong. Other than that I could only imagine Acrobat Quick Launcher or Windows own preview generating functions having a hold of the file, when you save it as PDF compatible...

Upgrading from CS3 to CS6? What is CS3.x?

I purchased a CS6 upgrade for my CS3 version. On the box it says I need a valid serial number for CS3.x. Will the upgrade I bought work for me?

Yes. .x is just a common notation for minor updates which denote differences in bundling/ packaging e.g. 3.1 was the version of Design Premium that came with Acrobat 9 instead of the older Acrobat 8...
