    Oops. Sorry – I meant InDesign CC – current version, all updates up to date. The images are anchored into the text by using the type tool and pasting them at the cursor point. They are then followed by a return and then the title of the chapter. The paragraph style where the image is placed includes a page break before command, and in every chapter, that works properly. Because the image starts a new page, there is no reason that the title text shouldn’t appear on the same page as the image.

    When asking for an example of the files – how can I provide them? I can privately email/transfer them. I don’t think I can upload here, can I?

    Thanks so much.

    Thanks, Erin – I haven’t solved the problem yet and that might be the secret to the different menues. I’ll give it a try. Problem is that I don’t want to relink because I know there have been changes to the INDD file. Ugh. Search continues… Have a great day. Sandy

    Hi David,

    I’m starting to think it’s something in my setup of INDD CC. With more investigation, I am seeing that “Embed Link” is the menu option I have no matter what type of file I have selected (EPS, TIF, XLS, AI) and no matter what file I have open. It’s like that on both of our PCs and our iMac.

    I exported to IDML and opened the IDML file. Same result.

    Maybe I have some option set somewhere that’s giving me the “embed” option instead of the “unlink” option.

    Thanks for all your troubleshooting.
    Sandy

    “Rebuilding my InDesign preferences” – I’m not sure what you mean by that.

    FYI, where you have highlighted “Unlink” I have “Embed Link” – does that give you a hint about what’s going on? All other options are the same except “Reveal in Finder” is “Reveal in Explorer” because I’m on a PC. I just tried this on another system in our office – also PC and both on INDD CC (64 bit) – and that machine is the same as mine.

    BTW, if I click on embed, it embeds the table and the option in the menu becomes “Unembed.” Again, same whether I have graphic or XLS/XLSX file selected. Also, This seems to be my menu option no matter what file I have open, indicating it’s a program issue, not a file issue. I never unlink files so I’ve never noticed it – been using CC for more than a year (and previous versions and PageMaker versions before that back to 2 or 3 I think).

    (We’re nearing the end of creating a 450 page catalog and don’t want to go to CC 2014 until this catalog goes to print.)

    I don’t have an unlink option when I have selected the XLS/XLSX file OR when I’ve selected an EPS file. I don’t have it from a right-click menu or from the panel menu.

    Hi David – thanks for responding so quickly. Yes, the files show up in the Links panel in the same way that my linked graphics show up.

    That’s what I thought!… But I don’t have an Unlink option in my Links Panel menu. I’ve gone to the panel options and don’t find “unlink” as a column that I could add to my panel. Any other thoughts?
