Linking text to same source
- [Instructor] In this chapter, we're going to take a look at how we can place and link individual text frames from one InDesign document into another or across multiple locations in the same InDesign document. Now doing this will enable you to take one text frame, and linking the contents of this frame to another document like we have here. But as you can see here clearly by the link icon, this is now being linked from the original London document. So this means that if I were to go back to the original document, come in and make a change, for example, let's change the phone number to this. This will trigger an update in the linked document. This will enable you to basically synchronize the content of text frames across multiple documents, enabling you to basically work and link to a single source of truth from multiple documents at the same time. Let's get started.
