    Cannot add more than 100 documents to a Book file

    I am using Adobe InDesign CS on Windows XP. I am trying to compile a book using about 200 source .indd files. This is the problem I ran into: "The maximum number of documents you can add to a book is 100. InDesign could not add all of the documents." I found someone with a simliar problem...

    Illustrator CS is acting weird

    I have Adobe CS and use Illustrator a lot. I believe I have some sort of software interferance going on, but I haven't been able to figure out what's causing it yet. I run a number of macro applications and I suspect one of them may be the culprit, although I've tried killing off the processes...

    Dynamic Flash movie height possible within HTML?

    Ah, I just found one workaround: creating a class in my master CSS file that references both the height and width. This way I just need two classes, one for the main page .swf and one for the navigational .swf. Also, if I ever update the height in the future, I just have to update the master...

    Dynamic Flash movie height possible within HTML?

    I am working on a website where there will be a Flash navigation menu on the left side. However, the first page will not have that menu; instead, it will have another .swf file. Same width, different height. My question is this: is there any way to have the HTML automatically adjust the...

    How do you launch local applications using HTML/XHTML?

    Yeah, but with IE6 I get two popup windows that ask me to click Run. A little annoying as we work with several programs on a daily basis. Is there a way of lowering the security settings on each computer to allow the programs to run, without comprimising security for Internet access?

    problem with InDesign CS library

    I was under the impression that the library would save the graphics stored in it. The library file grew as I added my icons to it (its about 10 megs now). So this isn't the case?

    problem with InDesign CS library

    I created a library with a collection of graphics that I am using throughout my documents. When I want to use them, I open the InDesign document and the InDesign library and drag and drop the graphic from the library to the document. My problem comes in after I've saved and exited InDesign...

    need some table of contents help

    What's the easiest way to combine all of the InDesign files into one? Is there an insert file or something? That may be a good option too. Right now I have a collection of job interviews that I'm going to output to a single PDF file for publishing. I created a template for the interviews and...

    need some table of contents help

    Ah, so the TOC thing applies mainly to single files? I've been reading the help files, my InDesign CS Bible, and watching the Linda training CDs, and I haven't been able to figure it out. Oh well, it will be a good 4 hour job :)

    need some table of contents help

    Thanks Marcus! I'm still trying to figure out how to get text from text boxes onto my table of contents page. What I have right now is a book file with the chapters and a page for the table of contents. I selected the text box on the Master page of each chapter and made a paragraph style out...

    I'm trying to make a table of contents based on a text box from chapters in my book file. I'm really struggling with the paragraph and toc styles. Basically, in each chapter of the book file, I have a text frame I'd like copied to the table of contents document. All of the chapters use the...

    Okay, it's been a few years since I've done web design. I want to get back into it. I want to learn HTML, PHP, and CSS. What are the best books, forums, websites, and other resources for learning? I've been out of it so long I don't even know what's good anymore. The two things I want to...

    Need to color b&w cartoon images

    Before you begin, you should know that coloring lineart with computer graphics isn't exactly a piece of cake. It can be, but like anything else, it takes a lot of time and practice to get good at it. It's definately not magic - the computer won't do the work for you. Before you send off any...

    [Using InDesign CS on Windows XP] I have a text frame with a paragraph of text inside and a 2pt black stroke. I want to give an even amount of white space between the text and the black border, on all four sides. So far I've only figured out how to indent the left and right sides using Left...

    Where can I learn about color? (in general)

    I've been studying InDesign CS as of late, and I'm not very familiar with color in general. For example, matching colors up (complimentary?) and so on. Is there a good book or other resource to get familiar with using colors? I did a lot of traditional art in high school, mostly with pencils...
