PDF to InDesign, Convert PDF to InDesign, PDF to InDesign converterĬopying and pasting from Illustrator to InDesign is crazy. I will keep my printer and try and improve my process. I think this is the best way, as cutting and paste bloats your inDesign document. I am going to try and write a script that will help place the eps as links so they can be updated quickly and automatically when source file in illustrator is edited, it will then change in all instances. I have not found any converters, or cut and paste plugins. InDesign has some excellent time-saving tools to expedite the process in large multipage files.

I am now converting my illustrator graphics to eps, and resetting all typography. I understand the query is how to convert from Illustrator to inDesign. With various printers, It could be a complex digital process, or as simple as preference for InDesign. I'm not going to argue, or look for a new printer. If my printer tells me he can do a 5 day job in 2 hrs with an inDesign file. Suggesting a new printer is 'not professional', and bad advice. I now need to convert an entire document to an inDesign file to use the interactive features that illustrator does not have. The client now wants an interactive pdf with video, transitions, page menu, text links and so on. I have a print ready illustrator file that I created for an alternate screen pdf. Excellent question! I understand the issue your dealing with.
