Willi Adelberger Jul 10, 2014 8:58 AM (in response to Steve Werner)I wanted to as the same, but additionally:
What does drag and drop mean here? From the desktop? Finder? Explorer? Or from another application directly from the document window to the InDesign page?

Willi Adelberger Jul 10, 2014 9:08 AM (in response to NeroliSalon)When you place content from InDesign, why are you exporting it as JPG?
You can either
- save the INDD file and place it directly into InDesign or
- export the INDD as PDF/X-4 and place it into InDesign.
This should result in better quality than using JPGs which will be always a loss of crispyness, change of colors, blurry text and loss of quality.
