InDesignInInDesign

I stumbled across a pretty interesting (albeit sort of obvious) bit of technical information during a recent project (that I’ll announce shortly).

It is possible to place and link an InDesign document (“Filename.indd”) into a standard content frame within an InDesign document.

Freaking amazing.

It’s not rocket science, I suppose. I just had no idea that a frame whose default content types are “Graphic”, “Text” and “Unassigned” could handle a live-updating InDesign document itself.
