Live Preflight reporting a false error in linked indesign docs
Because of a crazy proofing process, when I put together a magazine, I create all the stories in individual indesign docs and then place the indesign doc into a "main" doc when they are finished. Preflight is flagging every placed indesign doc as having low resolution photos. When I open that doc to fix the issue, all the images are the correct high resolution and nothing is flagged in their preflight. Im worried Im going to miss a real issue.
- Im using Indesign 15.0.3
- Create an indesign doc with images that are high res, place it into another indesign doc, set the preflight to indicate low res images.
- If the placed doc has no preflight errors, the main doc shouldnt have any preflight errors
- The placed indesign doc is flagged for low res images
- Screen shot of preflight of a live page and the same page placed in another doc.

Kelly, are you placing full pages? The Book tool may be more appropriate and allow preflighting to work correctly. You can preflight all files contained in the book; and it's fast because each file doesn't have to be opened -- you get a green-light/red-light graphic and can focus on just fixing the red-light issues.
