'Package' command not working in Indesign CS5.5

Hi Everyone. I am using Indesign CS5.5, and cannot create a 'Package' folder that collects all fonts and graphic assets used in a document I am working on. Using File>Package, the progress bar hurries through very quickly (way too quickly for a 80Mb file!) and the resulting 'Package ' folder is empty - no fonts, no images!
Has anyone else experienced this? And did they solve the problem?
Thanks in advance.

IDML never contains the images. It contains references to the images.
The images aren't altered. The person who sent the file to you needs to relink the images to the InDesign file in the Links panel.

  • Type to selection tool quick command not working in InDesign CC

    When I have the type tool selected in InDesign and hold command for the selection tool, it's not working. When I hold the command button it highlights the selection tool, but as soon as I click my mouse, it reverts back to the type tool. Also, when I change the size of my text box it does not resize the text in the box, even if I hold for a a few sec before moving the cursor.

    @Cindy – usually all 3rd party developers will provide some information for installing and uninstalling their products. First see if you can find some information on their web sites.
    Also there should be a dedicated Adobe Extension Manager app where you can look up the installed parts of InDesign. Since I do not have InDesign CC installed, I do not know exactly, but its name should be something like "Adobe Extension Manager CC".
    If you start this app it will show all parts installed with InDesign (or other apps that are installed).
    Usually at the bottom of the list are the 3rd party installed components. They do not state "Adobe Incoroprate System" as author. Never uninstall (remove) the Adobe ones!
    Here a screen grab from my German Adobe Extension Manager CS5:
    If you select one, a new option is available at the right. In my case here the "Entfernen" button ("Remove" in English).

  • 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.

  • Shift commands not working in InDesign CC 2014

    All commands were working fine last week but opened up InDesign today and for some reason all the Shift-based commands are not working properly (i.e. automatically drawing 45 degree angles and proportionally resizing shapes). Working on a Macbook Pro 2012 running Yosemite 10.10.1

    That's almost always because of system or third party software that's stealing your keyboard shortcuts.
    Check System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts. Investigate third party software and browsers that may be operating at the same time.
    If necessary, set up a new user and launch InDesign in the new user to check the problem.

  • Euclid Symbol Bold and Italic fonts not working in Indesign CS5

    Hi I created some Maths Text books about 5 years ago in an older Adobe Indesign program. I now have to re-edit the files using Indesign CS5.
    The Euclid Symbol Bold and Italic fonts i used back in 2005 now do not display in Indesign 5 when i open up the program. The other Euclid Symbol Fonts do. I think that they are all truefonts.

  • Autocorrect not working in InDesign CS5 - Help? :)

    Hi there,
    To save time, I've set up autocorrect to insert repetitive phrases that I need in my documents by entering keystokes such as 'zz' and 'pp' etc. etc. Now, these autocorrect features work fine with a new document, however on the templates that I need them for they refuse to work. I've made sure that autocorrect is enabled in the main preferences menu and I've also made sure that these specific documents have the autocorrect function ticked. Can anyone please help me...? I'm stumped! Perhaps it's something to do with the language of the document but I'm not really sure where to look.
    Thanks very much.

    "Autocorrect" doesn't retroactively correct a document -- quoted from the relevant Help page (
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/InDesign/6.0/WSa285fff53dea4f8617383751001ea8cb3f-6f52a.html):
    By turning on Autocorrect, you can allow capitalization errors and common typing mistakes to be replaced while you type.

    Anytime I press the CMD key the option at the bottom just changes from selection to direct selection, if that helps.

    THS,
    You may try the following (you have tried/done some of them already) and see whether it helps (the following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file; 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences):
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press CtrlAltShift/CmdOptionShift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder Other options (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

  • Why is my BDC_CURSOR command not working to position the cursor?

    Why is my BDC_CURSOR command not working to position the cursor?  Here are the details regarding my issue.
    I am writing a BDC to mass delete routing material assignments using transaction CA02.  I am OK to navigate through the initial screen to go to the Header screen and from here I am OK to navigate to the Material Assignments screen.  But once here, I cannot get the BDC_CURSOR command to take me into the list.  Here are the commands I am using.  Please let me know what I may try differently.

    Thank you for your reply.
    I had used SM35 to record.  However, I was not aware of the "create program" feature.  I had commented out a section from my previous post which I have now added back (latest code below).  But it still did not resolve the issue.
    When I execute with dismode = 'N', I get back error message "No batch input data for screen SAPLCZDI 1010".
    When I execute with dismode = 'E' (only show dynpros when error), it stops at the material selection screen without placing my cursor in the list.  I can then MANUALLY click to set the cursor position in the list, MANUALLY click the trashcan, it then uses my BDC command to respond to the popup asking "Do you want to delete", still leaving me at the material selection screen.  I can then MANUALLY click the green check (or enter), then it continues with the BDC to go back to the previous screen, and saves.  But it still will not place my cursor in the material selection list (SAPLCZDI screen 1010).
    Here is code used.  It is the second section of code labeled "CA02 Material Assignment - Delete" that is not working.
    CA02 Material Assignment - Set position
    this code functions to position the desired material to first in screen list

  • VBA-script not working in InDesign

    Goal: To have text placed from Word formatted in the paragraph styles I like. I receive the text from other authors and they are formatted with standard Word paragraph style formatting.
    Two solutions:
    Format the text in Word (change paragraph styles) using VBA, place/import it and somehow make sure that InDesign uses the styles I already defined in InDesign, not the way that style is defined in Word. I can't figure out how to do this.
    Do the formatting in InDesign, using script. But the VBA-macro does not work in InDesign.
    How may I change the code in order to work in InDesign? The code should look for specific paragraph styles and change them or the style of the next paragraph.
    Sub stilSkifte()
    Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToPage, Which:=wdGoToNext, Name:="1"
    Dim para As Paragraph
    For Each para In ActiveDocument.Paragraphs 'søk gjennom hvert enkelt avsnitt i dokumentet
       On Error Resume Next
        'INGEN MELLOMROM og overskriftene
        If para.Range.Style = "Ingen mellomrom" Then
            para.Style = "Normal"
            GoTo SisteLinje 'Gå til linja i koden som heter SisteLinje, = gå til neste avsnitt
        End If
        If para.Range.Style = "Overskrift 1" Then
            para.Style = "Tittel-små"
            GoTo SisteLinje 'Gå til linja i koden som heter SisteLinje, = gå til neste avsnitt
        End If
        If para.Range.Style = "Overskrift 2" Then
            para.Style = "Ingress"
            GoTo SisteLinje 'Gå til linja i koden som heter SisteLinje, = gå til neste avsnitt
        End If
        If para.Range.Style = "Overskrift 3" Then
            para.Style = "mellomtittel"
            GoTo SisteLinje 'Gå til linja i koden som heter SisteLinje, = gå til neste avsnitt
        End If
        'NORMAL til BYLINE
        If para.Range.Style = "Ingress" Then
            If para.Next.Style = "Normal" Then
                para.Next.Style = "byline1"
            End If
               GoTo SisteLinje
        End If
        If para.Range.Style = "byline1" Then
            If para.Next.Style = "Normal" Then
                para.Next.Style = "byline2"
            End If
               GoTo SisteLinje
        End If
       'Hvis avsnittet er i NORMAL og det neste er...

            '...i NORMAL endres dette til NORMAL M INNRYKK
            If para.Next.Style = "Normal" Then
                para.Next.Style = "Normal med innrykk"
            End If
            GoTo SisteLinje
        End If
    SisteLinje: Next
    End Sub
    I apriciate any suggestions!

    Thank you Kasyan, but it doesn't work as I expected it to. The InDesign style are somtimes overridden, sometimes not. It seems to have something to do with wether the Word-style is based on another Word-style or not. In addition I have my InDesign styles grouped, and when InDesign upon placing a text doesn't find the style on the top level, it imports the Word-style.
    My solution:
    Change Word-styles so they are not based upon another style
    Running the VBA-code in Word
    Placing the text using "Use InDesign style definition" for paragraph and character styles conflicts.
    Editing the imported InDesign styles so that they are based upon and equals the original InDesign style in the respective group

  • Spotlight still not working in inDesign

    Why is it that after nearly TWO years the spotlight function in the open dialogue box is still not working in inDesign? Is this some sort of sick joke from the inDesign programmers? Why can it work when in the PASTE dialogue box but not the OPEN dialogue box? I discovered this fault years ago and wrote about it in length but it has yet to be addressed.

    Thank you Daniel,
    I omitted posting that the Search box in my Systems Preferences Window used to work, so that I do know what to look for: as I type letters the preference panes whose description contains the (partial) word I am typing should be highlighted by an undimmed circle.
    Unfortunately, in my case, the behavior I have is that regardless of what I type in the Search box in my Systems Prefernces Window, no icons are ever highlighted. Indeed, I can type the complete name of a preference pane, for example 'bluetooth', and while my entire Systems Preferences Window is dimmed, neither my Bluetooth preference pane icon nor any other preference pane icon is highlighted through the use of an undimmed circle about it.
    This failure of the Search box in the Systems Preferences Window has been experienced by other people. For example in this forum, viz:
    Reindexed my HD but no Spotlight preference in Preferences
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=876847
    Unfortunately the solution posted in the above thread was to manually delete the ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.preferencepanes.cache and ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.preferencepanes.searchindexcache files. And as I posted I've tried not only manually deleting the above two files in terminal.app, but also deleting all of my cache files through the use AppleJack 1.4.3. Neither steps have returned the Search box in my Systems Preferences Window to working order.
    Alas, I'm still looking for suggestions...
