InDesign Tip: Copying File Paths from the Links Panel
Ever need to record the location of placed files, either for your own records or to send to someone else? You don’t have to manually type out a file path of a placed file in InDesign. All you have to do is visit the Links panel, select the file in the panel, and from the panel menu choose Copy Info > Copy Full Path (or Copy Platform Style Path).


You can also access this command by right-clicking on the file in the panel or in the Link Info section of the panel.
