Reply To: Images and the Paste Into Command CS5

Hi David,

Thanks so much for the link to the tutorial. Super helpful and very interesting. I now have another questions regarding the paste into command in Indesign CS5.

When presenting book cover mockups I always show the cover at 1-1 size and also as a thumbnail in order to get an immediate feeling of how the cover will perform when viewed at smaller sizes. In older versions of Indesign, to complete the cover thumbnail I used to group all elements on the cover and then scale them down together. This way, when I did a “paste into” for the thumbnail cover the image I was pasting automatically took the cropping and positional properties I had applied to the shot in the cover of the original size.

I don't seem to be able to do this any more – any ideas?

Many thanks,

P
