Reply To: Extracting embedded images from InDesign file

It's actually pretty simple, and I often embed images in an InDesign file if it's going to be moving around alot.

Just shift-click to select all the embedded images in the Links panel, and then choose Unembed Link from the Links panel menu.

You'll get a dialog box asking if you want to link to the original files or have ID create (extract and link to) the files. Choose the option where you have InDesign extract the files. Then it asks you to choose a folder to extract them to. Choose one, and then let 'er rip.

Then end! Works like a charm.
