Reading the indd files produced by the Adobe InDesign

Hi
I am looking for a freeware/shareware for Windows 8.1 Update that reads the indd files produced by each version of the Adobe InDesign.
Thanks

Instead, I was looking for a viewer of these files so that I can view them on any computer. Now, do you understand?
Thanks
Bye

How to correctly update .indd files with incopy through adobe cc

Hello,
We have a group of users in our company that only have incopy. This is done both for a control (no one changes layouts by accident) and for cost savings of not haveing the full suite for every user.
With this environment we have found that...
After any change to text via incopy, a person with adobe InDesign will need to open the file and update links so the .indd file will reflect the text changes.
This will need to happen after proofing or any other editorial changes along the way. This adds many steps to our workflow.
Ex:
Alyssa is editing a sustainability article with incopy (no indesign). She makes her edits and save the contents (copy fits, remove a punctuation etc). However, when viewing the .indd file in adobe CC, her changes are not reflected.
Bill (indesign user) had to open the file with InDesign, click update links (this is a popup box upon opening) and then save the file again, before the file would reflect the text changes.
Does anyone know of a way to get around this? It would be great if incopy could push the text changes to the .indd file without a seperate step.
Thank you,
Andy

I'm a little confused. Are the InCopy users using InCopy to edit standalone files (they're opening ICML files)? Or are they opening up the INDD file (the layout) in order to edit the stories context of the design.
If the latter, then there's no need for the InCopy user to wait for an InDesign user to do something. As they make their edits in InCopy, the layout view in InCopy gives them a pixel-accurate preview of how their changes will appear in the final layout. If other InCopy users are editing different stories in the same publication (layout), any user can update to view their colleague's edits on a story-by-story basis, or all at once.
And when an InCopy user sits down to work and opens a layout from the server, InCopy automatically makes sure that they are seeing the current versions of all stories in the layout ... they don't get prompted to update the stories, it happens by default. Even if the InDesign user hasn't touched the file or updated the stories.
FWIW, most of my InCopy/InDesign clients use this layout method.

You're in the wrong forum. This is not the Elements forum.

Is it wise to keep the Nikon camera files "DSC's" after downloading them and converting to DNG files via Adobe converter for lightroom use. In other words do the DNG files have all the raw data I would ever need in processing or should I save the camera'

Is it wise to keep the Nikon camera files "DSC's" after downloading them and converting to DNG files via Adobe converter for lightroom use. In other words do the DNG files have all the raw data I would ever need in processing or should I save the camera's DSC files?

DNG files do not contain some metadata supplied by the camera, which can be used by the manufacturer's software. Thus, if you don't keep the original Raw photo, you will lose this information.
If your 1000% sure you're never going to use the manufacturer's software, then this isn't a problem. But who can be sure what software you will be using 10 years from now?

Is there a way to name the .indd files created by a data merge with values in the CSV file

I have a data merge document that is set to single Record per Document page and 1 page per document. In my CSV file I have a field for Part Number. If I run a data merge with 10 records I end up with 10 .indd files. I need a way so that the resulting .indd files are named the same value that is in the Part Number field.

Loic has provided a link for my original piece, and I've written up some follow-up pieces for indesignsecrets.com:
http://indesignsecrets.com/data-merging-individual-records-separate-pdfs.php
http://indesignsecrets.com/data-merging-individual-records-separate-pdfs-part-2-scripting. php
So there are several ways to get unique name PDFs from an indesign Data Merge. However, none of these 3 articles will truly answer your question of how to get unique indesign filenames using the database. I can see a practical purpose for this as merging business cards directly to PDFs is great, but I can be guaranteed that while on proof, there will be alts to the business cards that need to be done outside the merge, meaning specific records need to be exported to indesign files for further manipulation.

Ind CS5 won't package the indd file

It saves all the links etc but when it comes to package the indd file, which is about 120mb, it just spins. Any ideas?
I'm running it on a PC with i5 processor, 4g ram, win7

Are you updated to the latest patch?
You might be missing a plug-in, although I would think you would receive a notice when opening the file, try to export to IDML, then re-open and package.

I would like to read a text file in which the decimal numbers are using dots instead of commas. Is there a way of converting this in labVIEW, or how can I get the program to enterpret the figures in the correct way?

The program doest enterpret my figures from the text file in the correct way since the numbers contain dots instead of commas. Is there a way to fix this in labVIEW, or do I have to change the files before reading them in the program? Thanks beforehend!

You must go in the labview option menu, you can select 'use the local
separator' in the front side submenu (LV6i).
If you use the "From Exponential/Fract/Eng" vi, you are able to select this
opton (with a boolean) without changing the labview parameters.

What I wanna do is to read all the data above and buffer them in a queue for each user( there are only 10 users in total).
I already created a class called Class packet:
public class packet {
    private int timestamp;
    private int user_id;
    private int packet_id;
    private int packet_seqno;
    private int packet_size;
    /** Creates a new instance of packet */
    public packet(int timestamp,int user_id, int packet_id,int packet_seqno, int packet_size)
        this.timestamp = timestamp;
        this.user_id=user_id;
        this.packet_id=packet_id;
        this.packet_seqno=packet_seqno;
        this.packet_size=packet_size;
}then I wanna to create another Class called Class user which I can create a queue for each user (10 users in total) to store type packet information. the queue for each user will be in the order by timestamp.
any idea and sample code will be appreciated.

Doesn't sound too hard to me. Your class User (the convention says to capitalize class names) will have an ArrayList or Vector in it to represent the queue, and a method to store a Packet object into the List. An array or ArrayList or Vector will hold the 10 user objects. You will find the right user object from packet.user_id and call the method.
Please try to write some code yourself. You won't learn anything from having someone else write it for you. Look at sample code using ArrayList and Vector, there's plenty out there. Post in the forum again if your code turns out not to behave.

How do I set the default file path for the Place command?

I keep my graphics files for each document in a particular folder. Every time I open an existing InDesign document and place a new image I have to browse back to that location - even though all of the previous images in that document came from the same folder. InDesign does not remember the file path that was used previously in the document. This is very annoying.
IS THERE A WAY TO SET THE DEFAULT FILE PATH, OR LOCATION, FOR IMAGE FILES?
I have looked through the preferences, searched the forums and internet, but I have not found any reference to setting default paths. Is there a setting like the one in MS Word called "File Locations" on the Options toolbox?
Thank you.

Since you're working in ID on Windows, you can take advantage of a neat trick in Windows. Copy the file path out of the File Explorer address bar and paste it directly into the Place filename field. That will jump you directly to the desired volume. For example, let's say I want to place a graphic located at X:\PS Jobs\May PS\709672bp\Working Source Files\Links. I copy that entire path from the File Explorer address bar, go to InDesign, select File|Place, and press Control + V to paste that path into the filename field. I press the Open button and Shazam! I'm there instantly, without a bunch of navigation.
You can do the same thing in the File|Save As and File|Export fields. Let's say you want export a PDF file from InDesign to the volume X:\PS Jobs\May PS\709672bp\Working PDF Files. First copy the desired file path from the File Explorer window. In InDesign, select File|Export, click anywhere in the filename field, and press the Home key to move the insertion point to the front of the filename. Press Control + V to paste that path in front of the filename, then add the backslash character (\). The filename will now look like this: X:\PS Jobs\May PS\709672bp\Working PDF Files\Filename.pdf. Press the Save button to bring up the Export Adobe PDF window. Select your desired PDF preset, press the Export button, and the PDF file will magically appear in the desired volume.
This sounds really complicated, but it's not. In practice, it only takes a few seconds. I probably save an hour's worth of needless navigation every day with this technique.

I want to change the default file type in the Open File dialog - e.g. from Word to All Files

I want to change the default file type in the Open File dialog - most recently specifically in Adobe Acrobat, from Adobe Files to All Files, so I don't have to do it again and again manually. Is this possible? Is it an OS setting or an app-specific setting?

The Apps set the default to the file type it can open, sort of. However, there normally isn't a type specified. All document types that the app can handle will be offered.
Adobe, and Microsoft, tend to roll their own dialogs, so they may not be standard. I don't have Acrobat, so I can't verify that. If Adobe is puting a file type selector in their open file dialogs, it would be up to them to store the preferences.
EDIT: I checked Reader, and i see what you mean. Not terribly useful.

The thing is that data has the correct length, in bytes, for the PDF I am trying to display, and I also get the pdf file in Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/4.3.2/Applications/ Does anyone have an idea as to what might be going wrong here or how I can better debug this problem?

How can i use the ACL file to control the access from the other website?

Hello all~
My Sun one is 6.1 sp3 on Windows 2003 SE, and I am try to use the ACL file to control the access.
My ACL file is below:
version 3.0;
acl "path=my_path_on_HD";
deny absolute (all)
(user = "anyone") and
(dns = "*.my_site.com");
deny absolute (all)
(user = "anyone") and
(dns = "*.other_site.net");
Once I add the "deny", anyone include my site is decline for vist the path specify in the ACL file. But if remove the "deny", everyone include other one's website can access the file.
Can anybody tell me how to make it work?

I think you've misunderstood what the dns attribute is for. The dns attribute returns the hostname of the client accessing your website, not the hostname of the website that linked to your website.
For example, when someone using the Comcast ISP goes to a malicious website at example.com that loads images from your website at www.amigoo.net, the dns attribute will be something like "c-1-2-3-4.ca.comcast.net", not "example.com". ACLs are used for authentication and authorization of clients (not the websites those clients chose to visit), and they don't provide the functionality you're looking for.
If I understand correctly, you want to prevent websites other than amigoo.net from linking to files in your d:/webserver/imat/pics_upload directory. You can achieve this adding the following lines to your obj.conf configuration file:
<Object ppath="d:/webserver/imat/pics_upload/*">
<Client referer="*~*amigoo.net">
PathCheck fn="deny-existence"
</Client>
</Object>

After choosing a jpg for upload, the "Upload File" button on the organization's receiving site of does not respond. The second problem: it's impossible to highlight more that one file at a time.

Clicking the first file, holding down shift and clicking the last file doesn't work. I've tried all manner of command, control, shift combos without success. This one-at-a-time attachment problem also happens in web mail. Are these two issues related? Thanks for non-techie solutions for both issues. I have Safari 5.0.6 (5533.22.3) and Leopard.

Thanks for your response. I do have javascript turned on (not java). To answer your question,
I was trying to upload 3 jpgs to the submissions page of a visual arts website. I could only highlight one jpg at a time in the "Choose File" option, and then the "Upload File" button of the submissions page would not respond.
It's an ongoing problem with this site (I'm the only one with this issue and there are a lot of submissions). I have to send the images as email attachements to the administrator of the site. When doing this via webmail, I still the one attachment at a time problem, but the images get to the administrator. Thanks for helping.
