InDesign 20 (2025) support

Cindy Bruni 5 days ago

Hello,

We regularly translate idml files for one of our clients. They just upgraded to InDesign 20 (2025 issue). Everything worked perfectly fine on our side but they reported a problem when opening the translated files in InDesign. They get a blank plage, the text is not displayed. If they open the idml files in the older version (19), everything appears correctly.

I assume the Trados filetype we currently use should be updated. Is a newer version available? If not, when will it be?

We use Trados Studio 2022 SR2 - 17.2.11.19134.

Many thanks,

Best regards,

Cindy

HI Cindy Bruni

Did you check the Process unsupported file versions checkbox in the IDML filetype?
Does it give you an error?

Regards,

Simon

Hi Simon,

Thank you for your reply.

I confirm it is checked. Which is probably why everything is fine on our side. We didn't encounter any error, only the client has trouble with the exported file.

Best regards,

Cindy

Hi Cindy

Ok, I see.

If the client really needs it to be in Indesign v. 20., then I don't have a solution for you.

We were using the suggested checkbox in recent projects but fortunately didn't have bigger issues.

I guess RWS will need to add info on Indesign FIleType update plans.

Yes, I really think RWS teams will have to update the filetype. I hope they will do it soon.

Best regards,
