To open an InDesign CS6 document in InDesign CS5, in InDesign CS6, Save (File > Save) the document to the
InDesign Markup Language (IDML). (The IDML format replaces the Interchange INX format used for saving
backwards in previous versions.)
To open an InDesign CS5 document in InDesign CS4, in InDesign CS5, export (File > Export) the document to the
InDesign Markup Language (IDML). (The IDML format replaces the Interchange INX format used for saving
backwards in previous versions.)
Ensure that the computer running the previous version of InDesign is updated with the appropriate plug-ins so that it
can open the exported IDML file. The person running the previous version of InDesign can obtain the compatibility
plug-ins by choosing Help > Updates and following the prompts. Plug-ins can also be installed from the Adobe website:
Visit
Product updates page on the Adobe website, and choose InDesign from the product list.
Opening a document in a previous version of InDesign is also referred to as “saving down.
Note: Content created using features specific to the later version of InDesign may be modified or omitted when you open
the document in a previous version of InDesign.
1 Choose File > Save (CS6) or File > Export (CS5).
2 From the File Type (Windows) or Format (Mac OS) menu, choose InDesign Markup (IDML).
3 Click Save.
You can open the .idml file in previous version of InDesign to convert it to an untitled InDesign document.
Note: To open the InDesign CS5 document in InDesign CS3, open the exported IDML file in InDesign CS4, save it and
export it to InDesign CS3 Interchange (INX), and then open the exported INX file in InDesign CS3. Make sure that all
InDesign versions are up to date.
Work with metadata
Metadata is a set of standardized information about a file, such as author name, resolution, color space, copyright, and
keywords applied to it. You can use metadata to streamline your workflow and organize your files.
About the XMP standard
Metadata information is stored using the Extensible Metadata Platform (XMP) standard, on which Adobe Bridge ,
Adobe Illustrator, Adobe InDesign, and Adobe Photoshop are built. XMP is built on XML, and in most cases the
metadata is stored in the file. If it isn’t possible to store the information in the file, metadata is stored in a separate file
called a sidecar file. XMP facilitates the exchange of metadata between Adobe applications and across publishing
workflows. For example, you can save metadata from one file as a template, and then import the metadata into other
files.
Metadata that is stored in other formats, such as Exif, IPTC (IIM), GPS, and TIFF, is synchronized and described with
XMP so that it can be more easily viewed and managed. Other applications and features also use XMP to communicate
and store information such as version comments, which you can search using Adobe Bridge.
In most cases the metadata remains with the file even when the file format changes, for example, from PSD to JPG.
Metadata is also retained when files are placed in an Adobe document or project.
You can use the XMP Software Development Kit to customize the creation, processing, and interchange of metadata.
For example, you can use the XMP SDK to add fields to the File Infodialog box. For more information on XMP and the
XMP SDK, visit the Adobe website.
