Indd CS3 Hyperlinks in placed Indd not available

Create indd file (a) and create a hyperlink to a URL in it. Create indd file (b) and place file (a) in it, like you would a peice of art. The hyperlink is not active and does not carry over when a PDF is made. We create large books with many ads in them, I have instructed the team to "place" the indd ad files into the book pages, rather than cut & paste so updates to the ad files would transend to the book. When the book is done I make a PDF of it for the web, so all the URL links that are in the original ad files need to be hot. So far the place method breaks the hyperlink relationship. I can find no mention of this on the web. Any help, other than "don't do it that way" would be appreciated

Here's the rundown of what and how we do it;
We produce Chamber of Commerce directories/Visitor Guides here in Florida. The books are created as "books" with regard to ID, so we have a front cover indd, a middle and a back cover indd all related via the book palette. In these average 100pg books we normally have 100+ ads which are a mix of supplied (pdf, eps, etc.) and (mostly) created in house InDesign files. Several people are involved in the creation of all these elements, and most times the book is being laid out while ads are still being produced and proofed. At size documents for every ad are created as placeholders and the indd file for, say, ad#001 is in the book already - placed where it belongs. As the ad source files get updated with content and/or corrected, they get updated in the book automatically, vs the old way which involved opening the ads' indd file and copy & pasting the updated version into the book - Obviously some ads fell through the cracks and the new way was atleast one step shorter and considerably more solid. Once the book and all the ads are finalize they go to the printer and I make a PDF of it to use with our "flipping pages" online version of the book. We have promised every advertiser that their ad (bearing a URL) will be clickable from this (Flash based) Flip Book.
So the issue is that previously, hyperlinks that we added to the ads during ad design came over when the ad was copied & pasted - Now that they are placed/linked the hyperlink does not. This means that I have to go back through the book and select every add and create a new hyperlink. What was meant to take minutes, now takes hours. In addition to this, as of late InDesign really hates to make PDFs of books without crashing, but that's a different story.
So is there a workaround? Can I somehow enmasse unlink the placed files so the behave as if the were pasted in? Once the book goes to print I can pretty much deconstruct it however i see fit.
Thanks for any ideas.

  • Thumbnails in Bridge CS3 for ACR 4.6 not available

    I have a problem, that I can open raw files per double click, but I dont get a preview in Bridge for my Canon EOS 50D.
    Also if I use the mouse button open in camera raw is not available. If I use open from the menu, the raw is opened in ACR 4.6 correctly.
    Also purging the chache was no success
    ANy tipps?
    I reinstalled until now two times without any success

    Hi Jim,
    I will check if I have another version in place. Maybe now I get a problem because I use Bridge for viewing the new pictures, classifying by tags. For searches later on I have Photoshop elements because of it´s fast database. For PSE I now need Version 7 with Camera Raw 5.2, for Bridge and CS3 (more complex actions for improving my pictures) I had to install ACR 4.6.
    From Bridge I can open the pictures with "open" and 4.6 appears before entering CS3. But in Bridge the option "open with camera raw" is not available.
    Hopefully I only have 2 ACR 4.x versions in the CS3 directories. This would be easy to solve. Otherwise it seems to get more and more enerving to find the error.

  • Sharing Folio - Source .indd files are not available for this article

    when sharing a folio, and opening it up in indesign 5.5 all articles say:
    "Source .indd files are not available for this article"
    What is the point of sharing if you can't change articles and update them?

    Because you’re not sharing the InDesign files, you’re sharing the folio.
    Pretty similar to sharing a PDF but not the source files.
    That said, I’m working on a project with someone else and everything sits in a Dropbox folder. Only I can update the folios but my partner has access to the InDesign files.

  • Why is QuickTime suddenly "not available" in CS3?

    While trying to embed a video into a document, I recieve an error message saying QuickTime isn't available. I've uninstalled and reinstalled QuickTime, which now works -- it will run video independently of InDesign. But when I try to place a video or embed one into a frame, I see this error message. The diologue box will not allow me to browse for a video (the button is grayed out). I'm using a farily new setup, InDesign CS3 on a Windows 7 64-bit platform.
    Is there a setting to allow InDesign to "see" Quicktime? Apple and Microsoft forums have been no help.

    Yes, I have the very latest Quicktime download from Apple. This worked fine until our computers were upgraded to Windows 7. But the Windows site says Quicktime is fully compatible with 7. I've uninstalled both Quicktime and InDesign and reinstalled, several times. The popup window simply says "Failed because QuickTime is not available." Our IT person says all the programs are installed in the proper folders. This has cost me three days of productivity and I'm at a loss. Is there a setting in InDesign to reconnize third-party apps like QuickTime? 

  • Fonts Not Available in Photoshop CS3 (Windows 7)?

    Hello,
    My desktop computer crashed yesterday and I had to run out last night and pick up a new unit as I'm trying to meet a number of deadlines (and not having much luck getting the work done in my laptop).
    The new computer uses Windows 7 as the Operating System.  It has already presented a ton of headaches... I've already spent in excess of ten hours trying to reinstall hardware and dealing with the various quirks that arise.
    The latest of these issues is that I cannot seem to access some fonts from Photoshop CS3.  I'm having the same issue, to a lesser extent, in Illustrator 10.
    For instance, after downloading the Helvetica and Helvetica Neue families in Windows 7, they do not appear in the Type menu in Photoshop.  There are a ton of useless pre-installed fonts there, but not the ones I installed.  If I try to access them from Illustrator, it displays only one weight of each typeface (for instance, it displays Helvetica Neue 65 but omits 55, 75, 95, etc....).
    The issue does not occur for all fonts.  For instance, I installed AvantGarde and it displays just fine.  In that instance, the fonts were TrueType whereas the Helvetica font files are Type 1 font files.
    Can anyone help?  I've already lost a day-and-a-half of work, and can't afford to spend much more time screwing around with this nonsense.

    Bill,
    Thanks for your thoughtul and thorough reply.
    To clarify, I do have a copy of ATM, but just have not installed it on my XP computer or this new one.  It is on my Illustrator 10 install disk.  Not sure if it will work on Windows 7, as Illustrator 10 would not run on the new computer until I set the compatibility to work with Vista and earlier.  I suppose that I could install it and see if it works.  Might be worth a shot.
    I will check out the software titles you referenced.
    With regard to font installation on Windows 7, there are three techniques as far as I can tell.  They are:
    1) Drag and drop method: Works the same as it always has.  Simply drag the typefaces into the Fonts folder or Control Panel > Fonts.
    2) You can navigate to where a font file is located (the desktop, for instance) and then right-click on it and choose "Install."  This is what I referred to previously, and I tried it after drag-and-drop did not work.
    3) For the third method (according to Windows 7 documentation I found online at http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7desktop/thread/324ecdc6-8574-4527-8099- efc430bf550f), you are supposed to be able to go into the Control Panel > Fonts, press ALT (to display the menu) and then choose File > Install New Font.  You would then be prompted to navigate to the typeface you want to install.  However, this option is not available on my computer.  When I tried it, I can access the File menu, but "Install New Font" is not listed on the dropdown.

  • Getting error on imac at time of loading photoshop CS3 plugin - "One or more plugins currently not available on you system"

    Hi,
    I am getting below error message while loading photoshop plugin on intel mac os 10.5.7 in photoshop CS3.
    "One or more plugins are currently not available on you system. For details, see  Help -> System info"
    In System info it is giving error as
    "Plug-ins that failed to load:
       Dissolve NO VERSION -  - from the file “/Applications/Adobe CS3/Adobe Photoshop CS3/Plug-Ins/Filters/Dissolve.plugin/”
    I have build this code with Xcode v3.0 & selected settings build configuration as "i386".
    Is there any CS3 SDK updated need for intel mac or any build settings need to be done in xcode?
    Same plugin is working well on emac, but giving above mentioned error on intel mac.
    Please let me know if anyone have any idea about this.
    Thanks in advance.

    Sounds like a PiPL issue, can you show us your definition?

  • Color Adjust Filter and Paint Bucket not available in CS3

    I recently noticed that Colors in the Filter menu is not available in my install of Illustrator CS3. I also noticed that the Paint Bucket tool is missing. Both appear to be in the Plug-ins folder in their respective folders (Illustrator Filters and Tools) but are not available in the program. I am using Mac OS X version 10.4.11 on a PowerPC G4 running at 1.6 GHz with 1 GB of SDRAM. I have the Adobe Creative Suite 3 Web Premium package.
    There may be other problems with my install, but these are the two things I notices. Can anyone shed some light on why this is happening and how to fix it? I tried a re-install, but to no avail.

    Basically yes, but not quite. You may want to review the new features. The paint bucket was removed because it was, well, pointless in most cases. THe Live Paint tool is much more useful than the old Paint Bucket.

  • Photoshop CS3 Disk not Available

    I have several users who when trying to print in Photoshop get an error message saying Could not print <filename> because the disk is not available.  Other users can access the printer with no issues when printing to the same printer with the same file.  The issue does go away if Photoshop is closed and then opened again.  Anyone else encounter issues like this?<br /><br />Equipment:<br />Mac Pro (Early 2008)<br />OS X 10.5.2<br />Adobe Design CS3 Premium<br />10GB Ram<br />320GB drive

    I have a similar issue in my mac lab. We are using CS3 with Intel Core Duo iMacs.<br />I can print to all printers from all applications with one exception. When I send a job to the color laserjet 5550 through Photoshop, I get the Could not print <filename> because the disk is not available error. However, if I preview the image first, I can then print the job. All other CS3 apps print to the 5550 without error.<br />The printers are managed with Workgroup manager.<br />All clients and the xserve are running 10.4.11.<br />I have another lab of G5's and they CAN print to this device through photoshop.<br />I have repaired permissions and reinstalled the app without success.<br />All of the clients are built from a source image. This original build or source for my image does print to the 5550. I only get the error after imaging.<br />Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  • Inline text boxes - text not available in galley and story view

    We have a book with loads of inline text boxes used as captions for inline images. The text in these inline boxes cannot be seen in story or galley view. Is there a way around this?

    I think there's a fundamental knowledge gap going on here, not a bug or glitch.
    ALL "normal" InDesign (.indd) files will open in InCopy with that message ("Because this document contains no InCopy stories, Galley View and Story View are not available"). That is the expected behavior. They open in InDesign fine, but they open in InCopy with that alert.
    This is because without any prior preparation, InDesign files are read-only in InCopy. You can open them in IC, and you can still select text in the stories you see in Layout view, copy and paste that text elsewhere, but you can't edit them. The file is read-only.
    With no editable stories, there is nothing for Galley or Story views to show. (They only show editable stories.) Thus the alert.
    As Robert said, the designer has to prep the layout first. They have to export content to InCopy format. Doing so creates an external file that's linked to the layout.
    Open the .indd file that's giving you trouble ... in either InDesign or InCopy ... and look in its Links panel (Window > Links). Do you see any listings for .incx files in there? If you don't see any, or they're missing, that's the root of the problem.
    A detailed explanation of the step-by-step process to making it all work, with screen shots, is in this PDF:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/incopy/pdfs/incopy_cs3_workflow.pdf
    Of course, if you know all this already, my apologies. It's hard to tell sometimes from the posts. If Links does show .incx files and they're not missing or anything, check the the Assignments panel (in either ID or IC). Do you see any stories listed there?

  • I am using CS4. Can I open CS6 files? I am receiving "plug-ins not available on your system" messages and I'd like to open anyway but clicking on OK doesn't work.

    I am using CS4. Can I open CS6 files? I am receiving "plug-ins not available on your system" messages and I'd like to open anyway but clicking on OK doesn't work.

    InDesign CS4 can open .indd, .indt  and .inx files from earlier versions, but not from later. It should, however, be able to open .idml files saved or exported from newer versions, with the understanding that unsupported features will be lost, text will probably reflow due to differences in texts engines between versions, and that the greater the gap between versions the more likely there are to be noticeable differences from the original. You will need to be sure CS4 is at version 7.0.6 to read the .idml.

  • LVM Volumes not available after update

    Hi All!
    I haven't updated my system for about two months and today I updated it. Now I have the problem that I cannot boot properly. I have my root partition in an LVM volume and on boot I get the message
    ERROR: device 'UUID=xxx' not found. Skipping fs
    ERROR: Unable to find root device 'UUID=xxx'
    After that I land in the recovery shell. After some research I found, that "lvm lvdisplay" showed that my volumes where not available and I had to reenable them with "lvm vgchange -a y".
    Issuing any lvm command also produced the following warning:
    WARNING: lvmetad is running but disabled. Restart lvmetad before enabling it!
    Anyway, after issuing the commands and exiting the recovery shell, the system booted again. However, I would prefer being able to boot without manual actions.
    Thanks in advance!

    # (A log is always allocated for every device and they are placed
    # on the same device as the image - no separate devices are
    # required.) This mirror implementation does not require I/O
    # to be blocked in the kernel in the event of a failure.
    # This mirror implementation is not cluster-aware and cannot be

  • How to add a new field in target ODS that is not available in source ODS ?

    Hello every one , this is the first time i am placing a question
    - Currently we have an existing ODS based on 2LIS_02_SCL data source. This ODS is already in production.
    We have a requirement to use this existing ODS as our source to load required data in to two different data targets which also are ODS.Their update rules are different.
    Problem: There is  now a requirement to include a new field (PO need date) in the two target ODS. As this field in not available in our source ODS . How do we go about adding this.
    concern: As the source ODS is already in Production, How do we go about loading data if this new field is added.
    Anticipating your co operation.

    The new field is 0SCL_DELDATE  (planned delivery date of document schedule line)
    It is already there in the comm structure of our source ODS. But as it was not needed earlier in the source ODS, it was not used/added.(i.e not there is the source ODS update rules)
    But now as we are basing our targets on this source ODS.
    How do i go about doing this.
    The main idea of doing it this way is because we do not want to reload data from R/3.

  • Adobe encore the software that's used to decode the media is not available on this system. installing the correct decoders for the file you are working with may help correct the problem

    Hi,
      I got this message after importing about ten or so H.264 files that I encoded from Adobe media encoder.  "adobe encore the software that's used to decode the media is not available on this system. installing the correct decoders for the file you are working with may help correct the problem."
    The files we're shot with HD cameras.  Edited in Premiere Pro CS3.  I installed the update 3.0.1 with still the same error.
    I also tried a brand new project and after about ten or so files being imported into a timeline, the system crash.  I tried this twice....
        Thanks in Advance

    Hi Hunt,
           Here is the skinny.  A window base PC.  footage shot with HD sony HD cameras,  Project imported to Premiere CS3.  Once completed sent file to Adobe media encoder and render them as H.264 widescreen high Quality.  Imported them to Adobe Encore CS3.  After about ten files or so.  I got the error message.  Did all the basic trouble shoot like restarting the computer, got latest patch.  Even build a new test project with the same problem.
        Something else I read in the forums, is the encore will transcoded the project to Mpeg 2 anyway, after looking at my project I realized those few files were indeed untranscoded.  So it will be a double compression and I dont want that.  So, my new question is, what is H.264 good for ?????????? I was research that Mpeg 2 is a faster render but H.264 is a slower render but better quality.....
       what do you think ????

    <servlet-mapping>
      <servlet-name>mks</servlet-name>
      <url-pattern>/mukesh_test/mks</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>1) To avoid confusion, I would not use mks for the <servlet-name>. It's a fake name internal to your web.xml file anyway, so be creative and use something like: Flying Tigers.
    2)
    <servlet>
      <servlet-name>Flying Tigers</servlet-name>
      <servlet-class>mukesh_test.WEB-INF.classes.mks</servlet-class>
    </servlet>
    <servlet-mapping>
      <servlet-name>Flying Tigers</servlet-name>
      <url-pattern>/mukesh_test/mks</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>The stuff between the <servlet-class> tags is wrong. You need to put the "fully qualified class name of your class" between the <servlet-class> tags. For instance, if your file mks.java (why are you using lower case names for classes?) does not have a package statement at the top of the file, then the fully qualified name of your class is: mks. On the other hand, if mks.java has a package statement at the top of the file like this:
    package com.example;
    then the fully qualified name of your class would be: com.example.mks. In addition, if you had that package statement at the top of mks.java, your .class file would need to be placed in the directory: .../mukesh_test/WEB-INF/classes/com/example/.
    3)
    <servlet>
      <servlet-name>Flying Tigers</servlet-name>
      <servlet-class>mks</servlet-class>
    </servlet>
    <servlet-mapping>
      <servlet-name>Flying Tigers</servlet-name>
      <url-pattern>/mukesh_test/mks</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>The url-pattern is also fake. The whole idea is to hide your actual directory structure from hackers, so specifying your real directory structure there means that the url will also appear on your web page. And if the url appears on your web page, anyone can see it by clicking on View/Source in their browser. Use a fake directory and a fake file name instead:
    <servlet>
      <servlet-name>Flying Tigers</servlet-name>
      <servlet-class>mks</servlet-class>
    </servlet>
    <servlet-mapping>
      <servlet-name>Flying Tigers</servlet-name>
      <url-pattern>/Animals.do</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>That means your html page would call the servlet using the url: Animals.do. The extension .do is a common extension given to fake file names.
    4) There's a forum here specifically for servlets called: Java Servlets.
