Insert a Youtube link into a CC Indesign document?

I am trying to insert a Youtube link into a CC Indesign document, using the embedded Youtube code (e.g. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/a8tngtNgXl4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>). I understood that adding "https:" into the code (<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/a8tngtNgXl4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>) @was supposed to make it work, but this no longer seems to be the case. Can you help please?

A few months ago, I followed Bob Bringhurst's steps in his iPad DPS tips app. And was able to embed the link to a YouTube video in an ID DPS.
But now I can't even paste the code from YouTube onto the ID page. I get an error message that the video requires the Flash Player.

How to insert an HTML link into a page

Hello,
We have a list of documents in a external document management system. We would like to present the list of documents to the user for retrieval from within any SRM HTML page.
I was thinking of two different approaches:
1) I would like to be able to insert an HTML link to a URL of documents for display to the end user.
2) Alternatively, we might want to inject some javascript into the screen to handle the presentation of the links.
We would like this functionality to work on any of the screens within SRM as global functionality.
Any suggestions on how to customize SRM to handle this functionality request?
(Will reward points very quickly)
Thanks

Hi,
My project has a requirement to show URL in Bid Invitation screen. In turn, when user clicks that hyperlink, it will pop-up a web dynpro screen.
Maybe this is the same with your need.
In case this is the same, the trick is to define an additional field in bid invitation custom header with customized data element and customized domain.
Then, defined conversion exit for the domain with javascript line such as "<html> bla bla </html>" to pop-up the web dynpro screen in modal dialog.
The result will be as what I have above.
Hopefully this can help you.

In the next release, we will be making adding our Measurement Studio components to existing projects much easier, but for now what you would need to do is add the support for Measurement Studio to your MFC project manually as detailed in our Knowledgbase at:

How do I insert a URL link into a text document

How do I insert a URL link into a Word document

Don't have Word available to test, but it seems to depend on the program.
In Pages and TextEdit, if you drag the favicon from the addrss box in your browser into the document, it will be pasted in already formatted as a clickable link expressed in plain text. The favicon (I think that's the name for that element) is this item -
However, in AppleWorks 6.2.9, all that did was drop the raw URL into the document; and it is non-clickable, just text. In AW 6 you need to type the plain-text name for the link (how you want the underlined bit to appear), select that, then go to the Format menu and select Create Link, from it choosing Internet. In the new screen, the linkname will already be entered in the upper box; paste the URL into the lower box, and it's done.

YouTube link into a SCORMed file

Does anyone happen to know if it's possible to put a YouTube link into a SCORMed file?

Hmmm, I'm certainly no SCORM expert here. Hopefully one of them will pop in to either confirm my suspicion or advise how it's possible.
But from what I understand of SCORM, it would mean that some sort of Learning Management System (LMS) has to be in place. Typically, the LMS serves up the Captivate content. And it cannot do that unless an identified user has logged in with their credentials.
Because of that, I would think there would be no way for a YouTube video to know who was clicking the link to open the Captivate. Because once the link had been clicked, it would then have to log onto the LMS in order to see the Captivate.
Cheers... Rick

Content of linked files in a inDesign-document refuses to update when edited.

The problem:
I have a question about linked files in an inDesign-document.
We have a indesign-file (indd) wich contains text, linked map-illustrations and ads.
One of the linked maps gets changed by an external map-producer via an VPN-tunnel. He works directly on one of the existing linked files (a map), and does not change the name or location of it after editing.
After the change, we open the indd-file again, but no dialog-window appears telling us that a link needs to be updated. So we do it manually, but the changed content doesn't get updated in inDesign.
If we target the linked file and choose to open it in illustrator for editing, all of the changes that was ment to be there, still is. It just doesn't show up in indesign. This also shows that the linking isn't the problem.
The file is only placed at one spot in the document.
Workaround:
1. If WE (not the external map-producer) open the linked file and save it again (same name, same location), inDesign instantly promts us to update the link and the graphics updates without problem.
2. If we place the file in a another location of the same inDesign-file, the correct content shows. (But still, the existing one does not update.)
Question:
Is there any way you can think of that could make this happen?
If so, How can we solve it without having to use the workarounds?

This will work if you all use the file syncing of the Creative Cloud desktop application and then you use the Collaborate option for the folder containing all the files. Then it will work on each of your desktops.
Links to files will not work in the browser when viewing the InDesign document from https://creative.adobe.com/files.

Is it possible to place an InDesign page into the same InDesign document

I'm able to place an InDesign page into another InDesign document, but am not able to place an InDesign page an InDesign document when the page is part of the same InDesign document. Is there any way around this limitation?

PDF is the better bet (although you might as well save a copy of your document). Snippets have all kinds of problems for this because of master items and the fact that from a script you can only export individual items as snippets (although you can group them and export that).

You need to embed the url link within the swf itself. The way
I used to
do it was draw a transparent button over the whole aera of
the swf and
attached the url to that. Get_url I think.
I can't exactly remember the steps to produce the results but
that the
direction you should be lookin in. Maybe ask on the Flash
forum for
specific steps.

Why can't I insert a 3D pdf file in an InDesign Document?

I am working on a presentation for a client and need to insert some 3D pdf files to it but I always get an error message from OnDesing.
What should I do?

Indesign doesn't support it. https://forums.adobe.com/thread/299199?start=0&tstart=0
You could add the 3d pdf pages after you've created the indesign file - using acrobat to insert pages.

How to insert a templated page into an existing Pages document

I'm sorry if this is a low level question. I'm new to using Pages. I have a word processing document started. I want to add pages, or I guess they call them "sections" in this form (why?). I have saved a page that I created as a template. It exists in my template folder. But when I go to add new pages to my document I am only offered the option of adding a text document or a blank page. It doesn't give me the option of adding the template that I made. Everything I've tried results in opening a new document or making a copy of the template. This does not feel very intuitive to me.
Thank you in advcance!

You are taking about Pages '09? because this has been removed from Pages 5.
Clunky as it may be it does have some very powerful features.
You can capture as many pages into a Section as you want, which automatically sets up a document in depth. Once you have done the work, it is super fast to compose a new document from all the parts.
It is a shame that Apple didn't simply fix what needed fixing with this model, instead of ditching it, because I am really stumped how to set up documents in the current version.

Insert an email link

Hi,
how may I insert an email link in an adobe rome document ? the "mailto:..." command doesn't work...
thanks.

No, there's no special feature for mailing options.
A few questions :
- When you say it doesn't work, you mean that, when you click on the link, your default email client doesn't automatically start ? It should.
- Do you write "mailto: ..." with quoting marks ? Quoting marks are useless.
- The problem obviously appears when linking a part of the text (the Link option is available only with parts of text). Have you ever tried with a whole text area ? Through Event menu.
- Which Rome do you use ? Online or local version ?
- The problem appears in the preview, the output file or both ?
Try to upload your site and then check your mailing button. Someone already posted about some URL rewriting by Rome within preview and local files, and the problem has been resolved with site online publishing.
Good luck

Newbie question: saving jpeg files in indesign document

hi there,
i'm rather new to indesign and i can't get this thing to work:
whenever i place a jpeg image (or for that matter, any other image format) into an indesign document and later move
the jpeg file to a different location on my harddrive and then reopen the indesign file, the image is all pixeled. it seems like the image
isn't saved inside the .indesign file, but is more of a referal to the file on my hard disk.
is it possible to embed external files (like jpeg) into the actual indesign document and save them within this document?
i'd be gracious for any help.

Grant's answers are correct. You SHOULD use linked images and you should update them on the Links panel.
There are specialized reasons it might be necessary to embed an image, but in general it's not a good idea: (1) It makes the files unnecessarily large, (2) if you make changes in the image, it can be updated in the InDesign file.

Multi-page InDesign document to single-page InDesign documents script?

I'm looking for a script that can take a multi-page Mac InDesign CS2/CS3 document and split it into single-page InDesign documents. Any ideas or comments?

Sorry I'm coming in at the end of a discussion, but there was not enough input from the O.P. Mike. Are we working on a folder of multiple ID files, or just one? Do we need to export all pages of documents or just a range? What platform is needed? Generally how many pp per document, how many documents? Cleanup needed on master pages or swatches etc?
I'm talking in Applescript here.
Do master pages really need deleted? If not, then no problem, just leave them in. My guess would be to just have your original ID docs in a folder, and an output folder. Start a script, select your input and output folders. Script grabs first document, counts number of pages. Repeats X number of times. Delete pages except the page of current loop, do a Save-As into output folder with new doc name. Reopen (or undo) and repeat page deletion and Save-As with new name. Go to next loop with next original document.
I've written a bunch of loops that do some of these basic functions. I can't see that trying to duplicate the page structure on a new document would be very efficient in any language. Seems like too many pitfalls that could snag you, like master page items or locked items or document preferences you have to account for.
Even with my script there may be text flow issues with linked boxes.
Mike, any additional input on what you need? Thx

Uploading an InDesign Document to "Issuu Online"

I work for a small newspaper that produces a monthly catalog of homes for sale in my area. Beyond printing this free publication on a press we also upload it to the Issuu Online website so readers will have access to the homes online as well.
I took over this project for a designer that just "up and left" without leaving any explanation on how to do this correctly. The problem that Issuu Online has appears to be caused by their limitations to how large of a document can be uploaded. I am hoping that I can get my publication online by postscripting the document, but am unsure as to what the optimal presets should be. Any help in this area would be great.

At the paper we "print" to file/PostScript to cover all of our bases when creating an ad. We have set up several options to do several different things like convert an full color ad to black and white, or ensure that an ad is completely CMYK even though some images built into the ad are RGB. Once we have created the PostScript, we distill in Adobe Distiller using similar setting that further refine the file, like adjusting a black and white ad to 200dpi instead of 300dpi to ensure that the black won't bleed too much on the newsprint and create a "muddy" image.
I was hoping to setup a preset from scratch so that I knew how to fix it instead of just scratching my head wondering what went wrong after an hour of PDF-ing and uploading to the Issuu site.
I hadn't tried the smallest file size preset yet. I guess it just seemed to easy to be the fix. I tried to upload the file again today and had "heard" that one problem might be found in how the document as a whole was set up. The magazine is built in separate sections in InDesign, then PDF-ed and then placed into a new InDesign document that is the whole book. I had "heard" that there may be an issue in the way the sections are created, some of which were built by non-designers (people that think they know how to design using MS Publisher or whatever).
Still trying ideas and looking for solutions, but will get back when I can. Thanks!

I also have a .csv file with the name of a jpeg in one column and a text description of each jpeg in a second column. Is there a way to automatically insert one jpeg (photo) and its corresponding text, each pair on one page, into a Indesign document?

I would also recommend to write the description into the meta data. This would allow to place a text frame above the image and it is possible to add meta information and file name automatically together with the image, when you place it or even in a prepared template.
Meta data information can be written easily in Bridge in the Meta File Workspace.
