Don’t Copy and Paste or Rebuild, Place those InDesign Documents Instead

Adobe InDesign can place a lot of different graphic formats. However, one that users usually forget about is Placing other InDesign Documents in your main document. This gives you the advantage of reusing or taking advantage of work that's already been done. It also allows you to more easily collaborate with others on a larger project by placing the InDesign documents done by your colleagues in a master InDesign document. This is also great for Ads that were created as single page documents to go in a larger publication.

  1. Hey Terry wondering if the following is possible. . .
    I have a diary that was designed especially to set and achieve your goals with an emphasis on visualizing and manifesting. I want it to be an app for smart phones and from your traditional this would be easy but i also want customers to add to it. . . fill in their diary pages, goals etc. add images on their vision pages etc. . . is this possible?
    It’s call My Success Diary.
    Thank you in advance and love your tutorials.

    1. You can certainly build an App in Flash Professional, but not InDesign. So yes it’s possible if you use the right tools and do some coding.

  2. InDesign within InDesign was a great idea. It’s very handy for printing paginated documents on the office printer. There are some issues with Hi-res PDFs when you do this too much for some strange reason though. Found I was having to break the files apart when it come to sending to print. Although maybe this is ok in CS5 now.
