Hi,
i have done some searching of forums and can't find an answer what I'm trying to do is import a 6 page pdf into a two sided page to effectively make a brochure.
Ive tried the "place" and the scripts insert pdf and the amazing other insert multiple pages script but can't seem to get this to happen.
any help would be greatly appreciated. sorry if this is answered elsewhere.
thanks!
Hi,
If you want to only place the pdf file as an image, you can try placing each page of the pdf file individually on separate Indesign page.
If you want the pdf to come as editable text you can:
1. Either do what Derek said above ( recommended )
2. Or use a plugin(pdf2indd), to convert the pdf and make it editable in InDesign. Open the pdf in acrobat. Click on edit pdf and save the pdf as a copy. Then use this plugin to place the copy pdf into InDesign. This will import the contents of pdf not as

Personally I'd take out the text and assets and recreate it anew in InDesign.

I imported using the multi page plugin that exists already and moved the images around but they are squashed as I'm turning an A4 into 3 pages across the document. Any way to fix this or do I need to completely redo this document in ID?
hoping not to for this particular one I'm new to ID (obviously!) and will probably just do all future documents directly in it but would love to get this one done.
thanks so much guys
