      Steve and Lukas have very valid points.

      To add to Steve’s, create GREP/Text queries to modify large bodies of copy that you can’t do in a GREP style. Create alternate layouts if modifying a flyer to a poster or vice versa.

      Use automatic page numbers, named sections with section markers, etc. if you’re creating catalogs, brochures, magazines, books, etc.

      If you’re working on collateral for brands, use CC Libraries or have a brand folder with reusable brand assets. The more you’re linking to a singular file, the less you have to change when an update is needed.

      Something I very recently started doing is using a script to export to PDF. I have two standard presets, and both started as the generic Press Quality preset that I modified for my workflow. One is for standard Press Quality and the other is Press Quality with marks and bleed. Rather than having to export twice for everything, I’m running a single script to do both at the same time.

    I received a response from the InDesign team on the uservoice yesterday. InDesign 20.1 Build 20.1.0.71 has the fix for this issue.

    Thank you for all the replies! I have restarted several times.

    I’ve never noticed this until InDesign 2025, so I did create a uservoice to report the bug.

    To me it defeats the purpose of editing the original from InDesign. If they’re not going to update, it’s easier to close the document, make edits, then open the document rely on the pop up to update modified links. The issue is you don’t always know what needs update until you’re in your layout.
