packaged files not preserving paths
In latest release of Adobe InDesign 16.2.1 for Mac 10.14.6, an issue occurred when updating a file PACKAGED from an earlier version of InDesign.
Issue was:
Document contained tifs and jpgs that contained work paths. In original document, work paths had been used to clip the images.
However, when document was PACKAGED and then opened in ID16.2.1, the paths have not been preserved. They are still in the photoshop file and can be updated by replacing or relinking the image and showing image options to apply the path information, but this is potentially a catastrophic issue for providers like ourselves who have never seen the artwork before and have no point of comparision between clients expectations vs how the file opened on our machines.
Worth noting that files were packaged with IDML files that did not feature this bug.
Another issue complicating matters was that the packaged file that we received (not necessarily packaged like this) had an .idlk file supplied as well, so may be original operator error.
