Here's my big offer for you: make an illustrator doc the same size as the InDesign template spread. Put all your various ai elements on it exactly how you want (basically use this as your layout doc).
Save and send me that illustrator doc, and I'll recreate it in InDesign for you (I'll email you a picture to make sure I didn't fuck anything up). Then also, email me the text parts and I'll drop it in there for you.
How about that?

NotByHand, i'd have several illustrator files though. Plus like Janne said I'd have the copy. I'll try to do it following the instructions Janne put above
- Okay... let me know if you need any help.NotByHand
- ok i definitely do. i feel like an idiot because i cant seem to just normally place the things in it. im just trying to figure out what would be an easy way to get you an .ai from which you could place it since it's multiple things for the different pagesPunchDouble

To everyone submitting:
If your final zip is large in size (over 15Mb), please just upload it somewhere online and email me a link to download it.
If you are unsure of where to upload it, you can use "sendspace" for example. It's a free service.

is there an extension yet ?
- janne760
works like illustrator. just choose "Place" and then drop your file, use the white arrow (cursor) to scale the contents inside the blue box..
make sure the files are cmyk first and set to 300dpi
the go to "file" > "package" and zip the mutha up and send to submissions@...- click cmd + ; to show the grid that was made for the bookjanne76
- cool... thanks. so i can just place the .ai? and if everything is in the .ai it'll be in the indesign file automatically right?PunchDouble
- sort of.. i do not know if it also links indirectly.. better to embed the shit into your illy file if it's linkedjanne76
- place the image in ai and link. place ai in indesign.moveinspace
- include all images when you package file for safety.moveinspace
