Working Backwards - is the image in any Indesign Documents?

Hi guys
Here at my place of work IT are continually trying to keep the amount of data on our network as low as possible.
To do this they produce a large files report and a duplicate files report.
Using indesign and packaging files as we do, we are quite often culprits of the large files or more often than not duplicate files.
Because it isn't just us that has access to our images etc we feel we have to package our documents because of the risk of a file being moved or deleted and therefore losing its link to indesign.
My question is this:  If we have an image, a jpg for example, is there a way of seeing any indesign files that that is linked to?  This way, if we have a large image file, we can see if it is connected to any of our indesign files and then if not, reduce / delete it without the fear of affecting any documents.
Thanks
Si

The other way around, yes, you can find links to InDesign files through
Bridge. This way, no.

  • I want to place an image in my InDesign document that can work with an address like this (\Resources\Thumb) rather than this (C:\Users\JSmith\Desktop\InDesign thumbnail Test\001\Resources\Thumb) is this possible?

    I want to place an image in my InDesign document that can work with an address like this (\Resources\Thumb) rather than this (C:\Users\JSmith\Desktop\InDesign thumbnail Test\001\Resources\Thumb) is this possible? In a nutshell I want to point the link to an image in a directory that uses just part of the address.

    I know this is something you can do in Maya with linked files. I guess InDesign just isn't there yet.
    MW Design -  Yeah I think "Relative paths" is the right term! I want to create a Layout with an image in the center of the page - and then duplicate my folder structure with that file. With that, I want to replace the Linked image file with a diferent image file of the same name. In effect having multiple files of the same layout with different images.  I hope that made sense.  

  • When I try to print an jpeg or png from Photoshop all it does is convert the image to a PDF & plop it on my desktop- it won't print the image. Any suggestions as to how to fix this?

    Yes, the printer is on, it’s selected in Printer Set-Up & I’ve never had this problem before. It’s definitely a Photoshop issue as every other type of file prints fine. I’ve uninstalled Pshop & am now reinstalling. Hope that will do the trick.

  • Whenever I play youtube videos on my apple tv the youtube logo and menus are superimposed on the image.  Any suggestions how to see just the video?

    I am unable to figure out how to view a youtube video without the youtube logo and the menus superimposed over the image.  Any suggestions?

    Found the answer on my own; restart apple TV and menus no longer appear over videos and while playing music.  However, viewing streaming video on airplay is not ideal.  Sometimes the image freezes on the TV while it continues on my macbook.  Also, sometimes the sound comes from the tv speakers; other times it comes only from the computer.  Never know what will happen when I watch a streaming video. 

  • I need to setup 7800 Series IP Phones in the CUCM 8.6.2 which by default are not support but will work after install the software. Anyone have document from Cisco as I remember I seen once before.

    Hi Ali,
    I'll just add this reference to the good tips from my friend Manish (+5)
    Support for the 7800 series in CUCM 8.6.2 was first added with this
    Device Pack;
    Cisco Unified Communications Manager
    Device Package 8.6(2)(24104-1)Release Notes
    Cisco Unified Communications Manager Device Package Release 8.6(2)
    adds support for the Cisco IP Phones
    7821, 7841, and 7861 running SIP firmware release 10.1(1).
    The steps are in this doc
    http://www.cisco.com/web/software/282074299/107528/cmterm-devicepack-8.6.2.24104-1_Readme.pdf
    You might as well install the latest 8.6.2 Device pack
    cmterm-devicepack8.6.2.24112-1.cop.sgn
    Cheers!

  • Firefox is not displaying all the images on any of the websites that I access. I upgraded to 4.0 and it worked correctly for about a day and then reverted back to the problem.

    When I open a website using Firefox it displays the text but none of the graphics. I upgarded to 4.0 and it was temporarily corrected. Now it has reverted to no graphics,

    Hi there,
    I have the same issue: FireFox is not showing all images on the page.
    Noticed this in FireFox 5.0. Now I installed FireFox 5.0.1 and still have the same issue.
    The missing images do not even appear in Tools > Page Info > Media.
    The images are usually accessed using DIV tag with a CSS class which contains background-image style. Often, when page opens, the DIV is initially hidden, and JavaScript displays it. Sometimes, jQuery.html() adds such DIV tags, and images rarely appear. Sometimes they do, but more often they do not.
    If I install FireBug and use Inspect Element to find such a DIV, it is there, it contains the CSS class, the definition of the CSS class contains background-image style. If I click the icon to disable this style, and then click it again to enable it, the image immediately shows up.
    Seems to be caused by some optimization which does not detect images like these.
    Hope this helps you reproduce it.

  • How to download all the images of any website?

    I am developing an application in which a URL needs to specified for downloading all images of that website..
    Please help me out which java classes will be used for this purpose and how to proceed initially??.

URLConenction can download any URL you provide, or at least try to. How you get that URL, e.g. by searching for IMG tags, that's for you to solve.

  • Automatically place images within multiple InDesign documents

    I work for a publishing company of agricultural trade magazines and work on few titles each month. We are trying to streamline our production procedures and previous company I worked for had a script they used to place images within text pages by searching for the file name, however there were some limitations with this script (it would only work within 1 InDesign document and only within 1 InDesign story at a time). The company I am with now breaks out each editorial story into separate InDesign files and we place image boxes when the display ads are going to go. For our purposes now, I am looking for a script that, once all of the image boxes were tagged with the image file names, could search between multiple InDesign documents in a folder and automatically place all the images for us. Is anything like this available or able to be created? If so, would it have the capacity to search between multiple InDesign documents and search the entire document for the image file names? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi Kasyan,
    They were tagged using a program called Pathways created by a computer programmer the company used at the time. The issues that I was working on were annual Buyers' Guides so they were mainly just listings and inline graphics. The kinds of issues I work on now are monthly issue with various stories and no inline graphics, but display advertisements. And each story is created and laid out in a separate InDesign document. So I would need a script that can search an entire group of documents for file names and/or image boxes instead of just in one story in one document for inline graphics. (sorry if this is confusing).
    I currently do not have a script to work from and am looking for something new that can be used to save use the time of placing every ad manually.
    Thanks for your help and feedback!

  • Why am I having lines/borders appearing around my placed Illustrator images in my Indesign Document?

    After I save my InDesign Document and close it... When I open it back up again. There are borders around all of my Illustrator placed images.
    I can't seem to find out what is causing them or how to get rid of them.
    When I am working on the file with it open they are not there.. it's only after I save, close and reopen.
    What the heck????

    Thanks for asking Will....
    I've gotten so confused with back issues of the file....saved in InDesign CC that I just started over..
    Was simpler to do that than to try to fix the one I was working on.....
    But while I have you trying to help me..
    Could you tell me how to set the document setup for a new document in InDesign CC to inches?
    I tried going into the preferences.... it's not there.. Looked through all of the preferences.. still can't find it.
    The documents I'm working on are 47" x 28" or thereabouts and I am having to go back to InDesign 5.5
    create the document there then open it in InDesign CC to have it the right size.
    Thanks for your help!

  • How do I convert specific images on my clipboard to text once pasting the image onto my .pdf document?

    Hey Adobe experts, I could really use your help.
    I have a couple screen shots from school lectures that I pasted onto OneNote. These screenshots have substantial amount of text I could use. I have created a big .pDF document where I have been saving my notes and text. Now - how do I convert the SPECIFIC images I paste onto the document into text? I'm using the word "Specific" here because I know I can run OCR on a blank page without any text. But how do I run OCR on an image
    It automatically happened a couple times when I tried saving the document immediately after I pasted the image - when I was under "edit PDF" I was able to edit and change fonts of the text. But how do I do this at will? Is there a special button somewhere?
    P.S. I already tried OCR - but this is only limited to pages without already "renderable text".
    I'm using Adobe Acrobat Pro DC; Windows 8.1 machine

    Hi SinNombre,
    If you are referring to running OCR on a page with image and renderable text, it is not supported. However, you could use the following workaround for the same:
    1. Print the PDF document to Microsoft XPS Document Writer or go to File->Export to...->Image-> (Any format example TIFF or PNG)
    2. Convert the output created to PDF. This PDF will contain all text and images as images.
    3. Run OCR on this PDF.
    This should resolve your problem

  • I cant view the image on any of my videos, whats wrong?

    I recently purchesed an episode of Desperate Houswives and when I tried watching it on my ipod video all i could see was the screen that shows the name of the show, the name of the episode and the picture of adam and eve. I could hear what everyone was saying clearly but i couldn't see anything. When I clicked on the purchesed "file" and then clicked on the episode it gave me an option saying TV On or Tv Off and i chose TV on figuring that was what the problem was but the same thing happened. Any sollutions?
    Video Ipod 60GB   Windows 2000  

    TV on is for when you have the AV cable connected to a TV.
    TV off is for iPod screen viewing.
    Make sure TV off is selected.
    If you have started viewing with TV on, switch to TV off-the problem will not correct.
    TV off, then restart the video.

  • Connection timeout when trying to access network.  just stopped working all of the sudden.  any ideas before i buy a new airport?

    I've already rebooted and created a new network.  No change.  I was able to once get the network to connect and it took forever for a page to load.  I'm thinking the base station is bad.  It's 3.5 years old.  The station still accepts internet connection and will route (hard wire) to my computer, but no wifi output.  Checked my computer's airport with another network and was fine.

    1)access the router web ui
    2)go to the Mac Address Clone subtab , enable it and click "Clone" . Save the settings
    3)do a power cycle
    4)check whether the router gets an internet ip add now ..
