Indesign how to find duplicated links11/15/2022 You’ll need to repeat this with other folder/link locations because InDesign only checks the folder you’ve specified. Once you hit ‘Open’, InDesign will search the folder for missing links and will give a pop up that says ‘Found and Relinked XX Images.’ It’s highly likely that you have multiple broken images in the same folder, so checking this option tells InDesign to search the document for other broken links and check them against the new folder directory. Once you find the image you’re looking for, make sure you check the box to ‘Search for Missing Links in This Folder’. This will open a new window that you’ll use to navigate to the new link location. (If you don’t have this in your sidebar menus, you can access it through the ‘Window’ menu, or by hitting ctrl+shift+d.) Then select the ‘Relink’ option (it looks like two chain links). Simply highlight one of the images that’s broken and open the ‘Links’ dashboard. It’ll help speed up the process of linking all of those images back up. This tip is preemptive, for that inevitable day when something like this happens. But now? It’s a super timesaver.Īnyway, if you’ve ever dealt with multiple broken links then you probably know what to do here. I think I was working on an old version of InDesign too, so I’m not even sure it was an option. Ugh…Īt the time, I didn’t know how to relink multiple images at once. It turns out someone had thought it would be a great idea to reorganize the images on the server (and honestly, they probably needed to be organized) but hadn’t let anyone in the office know that’s what they were doing. I hadn’t had even had my first cup of tea yet, but that would be the least of my worries because when I opened my most recent proposal file all of my links were broken. I sat down at my computer one day, thinking it was a morning like any other. Got a burning InDesign question? Drop a comment below or join the LinkedIn group for more.
