I'm trying to integrate with Adobe InDesign and a plugin the is already created. Where do Instance and Document Id's come from? Are they meaningful or just a place holder to identify a file?

    Are you talking about the Document IDs from the Media Management Schema (xmpMM:DocumentID)? If so, those are generated by the CS apps, usually on Save/Save As.. commands, and are designed really to be used by DAM systems.

    See the XMP Specifcation on Page 43. It discusses the MM Schema.

    Hope that helps.

     

    Cheers,

    -Andrew
