Publisher: pasting text from inDesign broken


Recommended Posts

When I copy-paste the content of a page from inDesign to Publisher it works ALMOST flawlessly.

The show-stopper is that a column of text will be pasted as separate text boxes containing each line of the text. That's extremely annoying and where the workflow of migrating would be super straightforward otherwise; because of that it is slowed down ten-fold.

Is this a bug?

Hi Pirxx,

Welcome to the forums :)

Is this text in a table? Rather than copying the contents of the page wouldn't it be easier to export to a format such as PDF and open that in Publisher?

Thanks

No the text is in a text box.

Thank you for the suggestion! I will try it - although I prefer to go page by page and rebuild everything (with an occasional copy paste) because I want to have all swatches/master pages/text styles etc properly recreated in the new document.

Once it's done I can FINALLY ditch inDesign ;)
