      Is there a way to change the directory for multiple links in Indesign? Link to Folder does not work since my sub folders are different within the directory.

      This is what my path is

      /Volumes/Neu Ad Department – 1/ZZ-Image Archive/STR/str88830_88831.eps

      /Volumes/Neu Ad Department – 1/ZZ-Image Archive/ANG/ang156.eps

      this is what I need it to be

      /Volumes/Neu Ad Department/ZZ-Image Archive/STR/str88830_88831.eps

      /Volumes/Neu Ad Department /ZZ-Image Archive/ANG/ang156.eps

      I am running InDesign CS4

      Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

      Unless there is a script for this, which I'm not aware of, you will have to just relink the images using the Links panel. Now, if you relink one image, and that folder contains other images used throughout the document, they will automatically update. ONLY if you completely break the original link by removing the original folder or moving it somewhere else. If you have images in different folders then unfortunately you'll have to update one image for each of those folders until everything updates.

      If there is another way that I'm not aware of then I'd love to hear it.

      I'm almost positive that there is no script and each link will have to be done manually. They might have changed this in CS6, but I have yet to subscribe so I can't say for sure.
