My advice for the time being is to save the PDF files locally and then move the file to a location in Google Drive. Unfortunately there is no solution at this time. I think it would be useful to periodically check both programs for updates.

bat file, ' Register64BitIcons.bat' (without quotations) and press Enter. Navigate to the Program Files (x86)CommonAdobeShell folder. But I hope the problem will be solved as soon as possible with an update of Google Drive for desktop or an update of Adobe InDesign. Open a command shell with Administrator Privileges by right clicking the cmd.exe application and choosing to Run As Administrator. It seems that the problem is caused by Indesign itself since it does not occur with other programs. I was able to check our internal database and I see that we are aware of this problem when saving PDF files directly with Indesign.

When saving an indesign of illustrator file (not a PDF), it just works.ĭoes any one else have or have had the same problem?.

It's only an issue with PDF files exported from Adobe Indesign directly on Google Drive Desktop. The file get's synced and can be opened by all other users. Next, when the owner duplicates the '0 byte file', it's working fine (🤯). So when exporting to PDF, the PDF is always 'damaged' because it has 0 bytes, while the 'background tasks' in Indesign aren't showing any problems. For example, if I'm working on a page and the reporter wants to correct something in the story, they can just edit the Google Docs story connected to the InDesign file, and it's instantly updated.Two of our colleagues are experiencing the same problem: when exporting a PDF from Indesign directly into Google Drive Desktop, the files for other colleagues are showing up as 0 bytes. It allows editing of the copy in real time and an individual document can be accessed by multiple people simultaneously.

Google Docs, in turn, excels at collaboration.

InCopy is great for formatting, line breaks, handing copy overflow, etc., and I like it a lot. Although it bills itself as not being a direct competitor to InCopy (no edit-to-fit functionality, for example), it's an interesting product on its own merits. The idea of leveraging Google's free web-based rich text editor for collaborative editing & then flowing those bits of copy into InDesign for newspaper or magazine layout is a sound one, but one of the issues is that there's no direct integration with Adobe InDesign that other solutions (such as Adobe InCopy or Woodwing's products) have.Īlmost as if they overheard us, Em Software (developer of the legendary QuarkXPress database publishing tools EmData and Xtags) has released the DocsFlow plug-in for InDesign that integrates Google Docs with Adobe's publishing software. Earlier this afternoon, I had lunch with a co-worker, and we discussed the pros and cons of using Google Docs in newsrooms.
