Can indesign import ai files?
Yes! Indesign can import ai files! However, there are certain requirements: Select "PDF Compatibility Option" when saving the AI file, otherwise it cannot be imported!
Indesign supports PDF files and ESP files. If you want to import ai files into indesign for typesetting, you need to save them as PDF files!
Note: AI files can be edited when they are imported into indesign software! But the copied ones can't be edited!
A powerful advantage of importing ai files through indesign is that the contents of the files will not change color! Keep the original file image primary colors ~
How does indesign import ai files?
There are two ways to import ai software:
The first way: copy and paste! The operation method is: after making the vector diagram in ai software, copy it directly with Ctrl+C, then come to indesign software and paste it with CTRL+V..
The second way: file import! The operation method is: after AI software makes graphics, it is saved to the computer in pdf format. Then open the indesign software, click File-Import-Select ai file-click OK, and the ai file will be successfully imported into the indesign software!
In a word, indesign software and AI software are compatible, and they can be imported and used when the file is in pdf format! If you need typesetting after making graphics in ai in the future, you can import indesign software for typesetting and editing!
