Hi all,
I am hoping someone can help solve this mystery. The scenario is I
recieve a CS4 InDesign file from another designer with all of our
magazines editorial content. I then place all the ads in that InDesign
file and generate pdfs for the printer. Last month we discovered (after
it went to print) that the last name of one of the authors was missing
from one of the bylines. I went back to the original file from the
editorial designer and the byline was there intact but in my Indesign
file it was missing. What is strange is that I never did anything with
that page since there were no ads on it. The whole last name was
completely missing and it wasn't like the text box was smaller and the
red plus sign was there - it was just gone. There was a paragraph style
attached to the byline but there was no overide symbol with that byline.
Okay, so that was a unexplained fluke.
Well, for this month's issue I did a double check of the bylines before
it went to press and sure enough the first name of one of the authors
was missing! I checked and the editorial designers original file had the
full name intact but my file with the ads on it was missing. Once again
this was a page I didn't have anything to do with since there were no
ads. Very bizarre... I don't even no what to check to try and figure
this out.
Any ideas of how to solve this InDesign mystery. We have been doing this
process for years and we have never had this happen.
Thanks,
Jane
