re: thread: http://www.adobeforums.com/webx?128@@.59b4feed<br /><br />i've been following above thread since upgrading system, requiring reloading programs. magazine layout using id cs2 , have created many custom settings/preferences have taken quite while develop , create...and i'd hate have make note of every setting , manually create every 1 again. these include custom layers, color profiles, page numbering, paragraph , font styles, pdf settings, keyboard shortcuts, dictionary, etc. it'd take month re-create that.<br /><br />as per peter spier's reply above thread, checked workspaces going documents , settings\<user name>\application data\adobe\indesign\version 4.0\workspaces there's nothing in folder.<br /><br />peter mentioned "the other half of prefs in \documents , settings\<user name>\local settings\application data\adobe\indesign\version 5.0\caches , called indesign saved settings." followed path , got folder named version 1.0 (i thought cs2 version 4?) containing folder named indesign recovery , 2 files...one named indesign defaults , other named indesign saveddata.<br /><br />i guess question is, should save "indesign" folders under documents , settings , when reinstalling program, use these overwrite? reinstate custom settings?<br /><br />dc
dc,<br /><br />if have no workspaces in user profile, odds didn't save custom ones. it's possible got moved application workspaces folder available everyone. on machine path folder c:\program files\adobe\cs2\adobe indesign cs2\presets\indesign workspaces, path little different.<br /><br />in version 4, both of preference files mentioned in other thread in same location: documents , settings\<user name>\application data\adobe\indesign\version 4.0. <br /><br />i think copying old folders new location work fine, make backup copy of new folders first, in case.<br /><br />peter
