Hi res pdfs aren’t the answer either since the transparency issues in all Adobe programs during ripping are still there. This goes back before InDesign even came out. Adobe only finds workarounds for us (sometimes) after they release their software. Working for a printer…just to let all you graphic designers know…the ripping software we use to process your files can’t keep up with the new versions of software. But CS4 will still not be able to handle CS5 features (whatever those will be). Just remember it’s not a perfect interchange format.īy the way, in CS4, Adobe introduced IDML, which - we hope - will make interchange slightly more reliable in the future. Or if you’re sending a file to someone else, where you know they’re going to work on it more. INX is better suited for situations where you need to clean up some minor corruption in a document (especially after opening a QX or PM file, for example). If they can’t bother to upgrade to the newest version, find a different printer.
In the situation you describe, I personally would never send him INX files. Most stuff gets saved just fine when you downsave. If you only use the features that are in CS3, then this workflow should be okay. CS3 doesn’t have that feature, so the formatting disappears. However, moving a file from CS4 to CS3 can very easily mean losing parts of your document.įor example, lets say you use GREP Styles to apply formatting to text inside a paragraph.
There is a reason Adobe doesn’t let you “Save As” to an earlier version: Using Save As (they reckon) should save every bit of your document you shouldn’t have any data loss. But, my printer company has requested me to downgrade from InDesign CS4 to InDesign CS3, as the designer in the printer company is familiar with CS3. So, my question is… Can I save all files in InDesign CS4 for the designer to be opened in Indesign CS3? He wants it to cross check before printing. I’m currently working on a magazine on InDesign CS4. To jump from CS4 to CS2, try this trick.)īut every answer, even apparently simple ones, always come with a caveat or two. (If you’re using CS3, you can do the same thing to downsave - or downgrade or save backward or whatever you want to call it - to CS2. The resulting INX file can be opened in CS3. The simple answer is: Use File > Export, then choose InDesign Interchange (INX) from the Format pop-up menu. indd file that could be open and edited in Indesign CS3? Whenever we get two or more emails on a subject within days of each other, I know it’s time for a post about it.Ĭould Indesign CS4 save a.
