nucleardirk Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Hey there! I have an indesign template (from psd tutorials website) which is a IDML file and which is for Indesign CS4-CS6. Unfortunatly the current final version of Affinity Publisher won't open it. Same with the latest beta of Publisher. The error message is simple saying (translated from germany): Could not open IDML file XYZ - File seems to be coruppted. File is attached for further investigation Thx everybody!

Joachim_L Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Your file does not look like an IDML, but an INDD file. An IDML file is a zipped file which contains several files. Try the attached IDML.

nucleardirk Posted December 14, 2021 Author Share Posted December 14, 2021 Thanks again, it is working now and I need to inform the distributor that they made some mistake. How did you convert into a working IDML? Because I got also another file having the same issue. Would you be so kind converting as well?
