Links Panel Options Choose which information is displayed in the Links panel, as well as the Link Info window (part of the Links panel). Note that the more options you select in Show Column, the wider the Links panel can become. You can sort the Links list by the icon at the top of any column. Readilyavailable information on color space, ICC profiles, effective resolution, scaling, rotation, and transparency can speed your evaluation and troubleshooting for customer files. • Utilities: Available through the Links panel menu, Utilities include Copy Links To (which copies selected links to a designated folder) and options for copying the full directory path of a selected link. • Other features: The Links panel menu offers options to Edit Original, Reveal in Finder or Reveal in Bridge, and to embed or unembed graphics. Managing links and relinking imported files If your client has used the InDesign Package feature to organize and submit files, and you haven't altered the directory structure of the submitted folders or renamed any of the support files, all graphic links should be current. If, however, you have moved the support files, renamed the Links folder created during the Package process, or renamed the files themselves, you will have to refresh the links to support files. To update modified links, select one of the links in the Links panel which displays a yellow triangle alert (indicating it has been modified). Then, from the Links panel menu, choose Update All Links. All modified links will then be updated. Missing Graphics Modified Graphic Missing and Modified Graphics The red stop signs indicate links that are missing-they've been moved or renamed. The yellow triangle indicates a file that has been modifed since the InDesign file was last opened. To link to missing files, select the name of one missing graphic in the Links panel (Window > Links), click the Relink button on the bottom of the panel ( ), and navigate to the first of the missing files, and relink. If all missing files are stored in the same directory (and have not been renamed), all of them will be updated automatically. If the files are distributed over several direc- tories, you'll have to relink to one file in each directory; the remaining files in the directories will be updated automatically. If all links are current, but you wish to relink to different graphics with the same file names (for example, high-resolution versions of the currently linked low-resolution files), you can quickly relink to a folder containing the replacement graphics. Select the names of all the missing links in the Links panel, and then choose Relink to Folder from the Links panel menu. Navigate to the folder containing the correct files , and click the Choose button. Adobe Creative Suite 4 Printing Guide 24
