Oh boy, this does worry me. I hope the INX file option will continue to exist, for it my only escape to create small indesign files to send over the internet....(in my little village ADSL is still no option) thanks

Well it is possible to back-save from 3 to 2. And it is funny to see that one cannot always UPgrade from a prerelease 2 to 3.... but who cares... CS is really much better....

Hi, to all of you.... JUST FOR INFORMATION I recently upgraded to Indesign CS (=3.0) ..... and my file size problem has been solved completely... Where indesign files saved as .indd are at least 2 times bigger than equivalent pm7 files Indesign CS has introduced the option to export as Indesign...

Yes, okay..thanks for your thoughts...... (Pagemaker is not dead yet, it just smells funny....)

oups...i think you did not understand my little table: where one jpg in the pm7 doc took 116 bytes, the same jpg in the IND-doc took 1284 bytes. That is 10 times as much! That is not very minimal to me.. (funny is that the PM7 doc actually decreases a little when i place the first graphic, i...

That is funny...you are finding the opposite okay..i did an other little test (i always place files with Place (or ctlr-D)not copy/paste... i create a new doc and save it immediatly (so it is an empty A4-doc) in both programs than i place in these empty docs one jpg of 2854 bytes than i place...

well, that does not help either... me neither, i dont expect awnsers from the writers... that is exactly why i asked this question in this forum so i can discuss it with others....if one cannot do this, or there is no reaction at all, what is the use of this forum? But, never mind and although...

Your not much help, hot shot top experts....

Hi, I have lots of experience with PM7 and want to migrate to INDD. I work a lot over the internet so i frequently use linked references to graphics to limit the filesize of the pm7-document. INDD seems to have the same option: link instead of embed; but the resulting filesize of the INDD-file...

Okay, point for you (and a star)

Yes, that was new to me, you did it in 5 clicks. I did not know one could simple drag over the layerlist to lock all layers at once. That's a nice feature. Also selecting objects and some nodes only from another object come in handy in this case. But you did not count several clicks you needed...

yAQUAN, you are right, I abused of a capital D where it should be 'd' so the right adress is: http://perso.wanadoo.fr/rob.lieveloo/lab3d.ai XLCS, yes that's right all those sublayers do exist in my drawing, but like you say, this is not cutting down on mouse-clicks and that is precisely my...

Oops little correction: don't use capitals in the webadress i mentioned before.....

okay, i have placed a simplified version of a drawing in http://perso.wanadoo.fr/rob.lieveloo/lab3D.ai (this is AI10) This is a (not very complex) illustration i made within 1 hour in Coreldraw yesterday and exported it to AI (can AI do it this fast?) It represents a airconditioning-layout for...

Thanks, for your advise.... But still............all methods you mention are only workarounds to lessen the pain in my wrist; they do not give a fundamental solution. I work mostly with very technical drawings with hundreds/ thousants often overlapping elements, different coulours, and strokes...

Yessss jAQUAN, I knew i could count on your reaction...thanks for that, but i think your awnser does not do the trick...... I did understand the functioning of these selection tools (i think), but still think you will need at least 101 clicks in order to move the 100 small objects out of the way...

I'm fearly new to Illustrator and come from Coreldraw, so please forgive me my ignorance.... I have two questions...... When I want to select a series of objects in CD i drag a rectangle around them, ensuring that other objects i don't want to select, are not completely within the rectangle (so...

Do you have a virusscanner on your system? Try to turn it off......

Thanks Eggles, you where almost right; Meanwhile i have solved my problem: When starting up distiller seperatly one has the option to change 'Font locations'. In that window there is an option 'Ignore TrueType versions of Standard Postscriptfonts'. It was unchecked. Just checking this box...

I use File>export to create the PDF . I have also tried to export first to PS and then distilling seperatly: still odd chars When exporting to PDF i have tried to use de acrobat printersimulator and also the 'current printer setting': no difference.....the resulting PDF has odd characters in...
