Hi Alfonso, thanks for the kind words about my Word and InDesign title on lynda.com!

If InDesign is going to have *any* trouble, it’d be with a Word doc with “lots of cross-references and indexes.” If it’s at all possible to write this in InDesign itself, that’d be preferable. Or, use the Word file as final for publication.

Otherwise I’d test the Word > ID import periodically to make sure all is well … check xrefs, mainly. Also, I’m not sure how you’re going to be able to do an index in Word that updates itself in InDesign with the new/correct page numbers. Did I cover that in the title? hahaha … I don’t remember.

You all need to use the same version … you need InDesign CC.

I vaguely recall that, it may have been fixed in a CS6 patch. I’ll nose around.

You will want to watch Kevin Callahan’s new course on lynda.com, Creating Fixed Layout Ebooks for Kindle: https://www.lynda.com/InDesign-tutorials/Creating-Fixed-Layout-eBooks-Kindle/433941-2.html. Kevin is a frequent speaker at our conferences (on ebook dev) and is the editor for epubsecrets.com, our sister site.

Yes, CircularFLO is Mac-only. (But works GREAT.)
