InDesign only for setting up pdfs for storyboard routing.

hahah what's the point of the question. It sounds like you're asking what programs you need to be an art director.

lets say you have a twenty pager
and one of the nav button changes and effects all pages.wouldn't it be easier to have InDesignfile and relink image
and it would automatically do all pages?just asking - 'cause might have an opportunity ;_)
- symbols library. or use fireworks. some may laugh but it's really underrated as a web layout tool.johndiggity

in your layers
right click on the button - duplicate layer - select the document you'd like to duplicate it to. it duplicates it in place.
