      When I make a photoshop pdf from a psd-file wit layers (text and others) kept, should I see those layers in the 'Object Layer Options' dialog box when placing this pdf in InDesign. Now, I don't see them?!

      If so, what am I doing wrong?

      Thanks for al the info !

      Wow, I don't know if this is a bug or something changed… or perhaps it never worked properly… but you appear to be correct: PDF files from Photoshop do not display their layers in InDesign. It only works with PSD files. That is unfortunate, as you need PDF to maintain vector type.

      In fact, if you open the Photoshop PDF in Acrobat, you can see that there are no Layers! So Photoshop is not including the layers in the PDF. Too bad.
