Just want you to know people (like me) are still getting value out of it.<br /><br />Thanks!<br />@DJLeinDJhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11342523274408965137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28416661.post-41451127790901995862009-03-24T21:03:00.000-05:002009-03-24T21:03:00.000-05:00@Rekanize, I don't understand why it might be behaving as you're describing, and unfortunately I don't have time to do any more testing of this at the moment. But I can tell you that there aren't any preference settings that affect the behavior of linked files in this situation.Keith Gilberthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17639216496820581739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28416661.post-4132675799330259172009-03-23T17:02:00.000-05:002009-03-23T17:02:00.000-05:00It's funny that I found this post today, because I'm trying to research a problem with InDesign CS4 where packaging a book file is yielding the exact OPPOSITE result when collecting the links into a central folder.<BR/><BR/>If there are two different images with the same name in different folders, InDesign is creating two copies of ONLY ONE of the images, and linking one to each page.<BR/><BR/>Result? there's a repeat image in the new book, and one of the images disappears into the ether.<BR/><BR/>THEN, if there's a single image linked to multiple pages (like a single background image) I'm getting multiple copies of the file in the links folder, each appended with a unique sequential numeral, severely bloating my total project size.<BR/><BR/>I was hoping there was a setting in the preferences that I might have overlooked...<BR/><BR/>I'm using OSX CS4 Design PremiumRekanizehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14589165311508558729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28416661.post-56820301434526531892008-10-06T07:15:00.000-05:002008-10-06T07:15:00.000-05:00Good point, Anne-Marie. Thanks!<BR/><BR/>Just to clarify, what Anne-Marie is referring to is the &quot;Book Page Numbering Options&quot; choice found in the Books panel menu. In the dialog box that appears, deselect the &quot;Automatically Update Page &amp; Section Numbers&quot; option.Keith Gilberthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17639216496820581739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28416661.post-81792004841037581682008-10-04T00:19:00.000-05:002008-10-04T00:19:00.000-05:00Cool tip Keith!<BR/><BR/>If you're just using the Books panel for packaging ... and you don't want to change anything in the docs themselves ... remember to turn off Automatically Renumber Pages and Section in the Book panel menu (Book Page Numbering options) before you bring in the ID docs. It's on by default.<BR/><BR/>I've been bitten by that one before!Anne-Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08091968980534403990noreply@blogger.com
