Although InDesign CC figures in the list of supported file types (CS4 - CC IDML), I cannot open an InDesign file (created by the customer on InDesign CC and saved in IDML Format).

Each time when I try to open it, I get the following error message:
The selected file was not created in InDesign CS4 and cannot be processed.

(Something like this - the message appears in German).

What am I doing wrong?

Can I see the file... Oct 4, 2013

Hi Jutta,

Studio 2014 should be able to handle these as we made a few changes to the filetype according to the spec. provided by Adobe. Certainly worked during our testing.

Perhaps you can share the file with me so we can test it and perhaps see how it can be handled?

Kind regards

Was a solution found to idml-error in Studio 2014? Oct 17, 2013

Hi Jutta and Paul
I have the exact same problem. I'm opening an InDesign file in Creative Cloud, then exporting it in idml-format for translation in Studio 2014. I get this error message:

"Pre-scanning failed to identify the file type, the following messages were generated:
Pre-scanning error: The selected IDML file was created by an unsupported version of Adobe InDesign and will not be processed."

I get the same message if I create a new file in Adobe Indesign CC and export it in idml.

It's driving me cracy too. I sincerely hope there is a fix to this issue, since I expected this to run smoothly when upgrading to 2014 ... and a deadline is coming up.

Am I overlooking something?

Kind regards

@ Charlotte Oct 17, 2013

This ist the way you have to proceed:
http://kb.sdl.com/?portalid=23&articleid=4871#tab:homeTab:crumb:7:artId:4871

In order to open the idml file with Studio 2011 you have to change the product name to "8.0 (370)".
In order to open it with Studio 2011 you have to change it to "9.0(244)"

In my case it worked perfectly:-)

Studio 2014 not opening my InDesign CC file (idml format) Jul 4, 2014

Hi,

I'm using Trados Studio 2014 and it just won't let me open my InDesign file. I've tried the two steps which seem to be geared at 2011 anyway, so for 2014, I have no idea. I'm getting the same error message "The source file was created in an unsupported version of InDesign" etc.

Have there been any developments in this?

Adobe CC 2014 ? Jul 4, 2014

Hi,

If this is Adobe CC 2014 then the reason is probably because it was released into production around the 18th June I believe and we have not released an update for this yet.

The current thinking is this will be available around the end of August – if we don’t find any critical issues.

So in the meantime you have the ability to take on board the risk (or benefit) of changing the version number in the file yourself via the advice in the KB article. I

So in the meantime you have the ability to take on board the risk (or benefit) of changing the version number in the file yourself via the advice in the KB article. I haven't tried this with an Adobe CC 2014 file yet, so if you're struggling feel free to send it to me and I'll be happy to take a look. But keep in mind that the version number alone may not be the only difference so even if Studio can open it there is no guarantee it will extract the information correctly until we provide a proper update.

Kind regards

Fixed? Feb 16, 2015

Hi

Has this issue been resolved? Not upgrading to 2014 if this is still an issue (receiving +20 IDML files monthly and the resaving in InDesign 6 is soon not possible (client is leaving 6 completely).

File type error Mar 12, 2015

Dear Colleagues,
Please, advice on appropriate version of InDesign to be inserted in txt-file as I've tried both 8.x and 9.x. ones.
Original file version 10.1 doesn't fit as well. Thanks in advance.

use the checkbox for unsupported versions... Mar 12, 2015

... which you can find here:



Whenever Adobe make changes they might do something to affect the correct extraction of translatable text, or worse, so using this option will allow you to process the file (unless the change is a really big one!) and we will update any necessary changes in a future update.

Hello Andrei,

What are you trying to accomplish? I don't really understand what you mean by inserting an InDesign file into a text file.
