InDesign tab settings


Recommended Posts

Hi! I am using Publisher today for first time. Saw on internet that directly opening InDesign files isn't possible, but saw the recommendation of saving from ID as PDF first. This opens in Publisher and I have tried different import checkbox settings. However, it seems where I have tab settings with more than one tab and indent, Publisher divides the single text box up into multiple text boxes to maintain the original alignment. Page one of the attached file worked fine, but page 2 at top left has this issue and page 5 really gets messed up. Any ideas on how to get a clean conversion with editable text? I have 20 years worth of InDesign files I need to be able to work with, otherwise I will have to continue my Adobe subscription (not my intention). Thanks for any help!

I tried going via a word doc format but that wasn't too good for me. Might work better for you as you have the fonts installed. If you could upload some sample idml files to here we could use those for testing a potential new feature ;-)

Did I just read correctly between the lines that this "potential new feature" is getting close to internal testing? There is a massive thread full of people who would jump at that news.
