Fixing bad or corrupted Adobe InDesign files (error 5, etc) has been more requested than we even thought. With only a few blog posts and a couple films highlighting how we recover the bad files, we have had many send in their documents! Keep emailing them to us on david AT markzware . nl Hi, I am Arnold Roosch from Markzware Europe and I would like to give you an update on our last podcast about repairing flaky InDesign files using both Quark, Markzware's InDesign to Quark XTension or ID2Q for Quark and Markzware's Quark to InDesign conversion Plugin or Q2ID for InDesign. We received a huge number of positive reactions on our first videocast on this subject after which we asked you, as InDesign users to send in your flaky InDesign files. To be honest; we did not know there where that many corrupted files out there! We are still receiving 1 or 2 corrupt files per day and using the quite onorthodox way of salvaging the file, we where able to salvage about 90 to 95 percent of them. Since our Research and Development department is working hard on a solution to prevent InDesign files from getting permanently damaged I hereby ask you to keep sending us your flaky files. We will try to salvage your file, send it back to you and use it to create you a product that will put an end to InDesign files getting corrupt that took you hours to create.

We at Markzware offer a no-cure, no-pay InDesign file recovery service for bad, damaged, corrupt or otherwise not opening .INDD documents. I must say, we are seeing this service used by numerous people - DAILY. This video highlights a twist or rather interesting file from earlier this week which we managed to pry open with our unique method of correction - using our Q2ID (Quark to InDesign) and ID2Q (In-Design to XPress) with QuarkXPress to fix or open them! See:
http://www.markzware.com/blogs/bad-corrupted-adobe-indesign-software-docs/2008/09/15/
The message was as such in Adobe InDesign CS3 version; "Missing Plug-ins" - and it listed the two used InDesign Plugins of Conditional Text and WorldReady.InDesignPlugin. The message further reads, "The document "Xxxx.indd" uses one or more plug-ins which are not currently available on your system. Do you want to open anyway?
And that is where it got funky. Or better said, "Adobe InDesign cannot open this file!"
The good news, Our method worked! See more on how, here:

Oh and also learn more about how FlightCheck Professional v6.5 from Markzware can also assist with your document workflow. Quality assurance or prelfighting is vital and FlightCheck will quickly show you all used elements and highlight potential output problems, within InDesign, BEFORE you output yo PDF or print!

Thanks and have a great day. Peace.

Just aligning your text using the Justify button is just not good enough. However you can just watch this video tutorial all about the secrets of getting justified text looking just right. None of that horrible hyphenation either. Just letter space, word space and a little bit of typographic cheating is in order.
