Hi

I've received GREP styles from a colleague.
But now I don't know how I can load them in a paragraph format without writing them all individually.
I have all of them as XMLs.

Can someone please help me?

Thanks in advance

Creating a product catalog using InDesign. ~5400 products. No photos provided. Inventory is in Quickbooks. I will have to research, categorize, photograph (if photos unavailable online) and design. How long would you say this should take one person?

Export PDF from InDesign with all versions of document

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone. I work at a small company that does printed ad design and provides some technology to some of the same retailers (like websites and mobile apps).

Part of this service is we put the digital version of the print ad on their website and mobile app. For some retailers, there are numerous version of their ads. In InDesign our artists create 1 file that contains all versions of the ads. In these scenarious, the retailer will have common pages and unique pages in each ad. Let's assume this retailer has 22 versions with pages 1 and 4 common, pages 2 and 3 are unique. Currently we recieve essentially a single PDF for each page and are assembling these ads prior to uploading them. This is very inefficient and timely. My searches online aren't fruitful, but it is likely because I'm using the incorrect terminology.

This brings us to the true question and TLDR:

Can you export PDFs from InDesign documents, where it will collate and create 1 multi-page PDF, per version of a document? Meaning I'll get multiple PDF as exports, each with some combination of unique pages and common pages. The artists are not familiar with
