Links resizing despite being the same image

I have to relink images in an Indesign document as this is a new job I have to change our internal prefix job number.

For example 12345 - Client name - file name the only change I make is to the job number the image itself has not been changed or resaved but when I relink the image it usually increases in size.

I have found a work around when the pop-up preview window (please see image) appears I can choose from the CROP TO OPTIONS but this usually takes 3 attempts to find the correct option.

I have never experienced the image size changing when I have had to relink images in the past unless the actual image was size/content has been amended.

The files I have to relink are all PDFs could that be the cause?

Thanks.

Hi,

Can you see what happens when you turn off the below preference:

Hi Aman,

When I turn off the "Preserve Image Dimensions When Relinking" It resizes the image so the entire image is visible, my original links are set in the image box so only parts of the image are visible.

Thanks.

Hi,

If it used to work fine previously, you can try cleaning your cache and preferences...Troubleshooting 101: Replace, or "trash" your InDesign preferences

Hi Aman,

That appears to have worked.

Thanks.
