We are running a project where we use a CMS (Sitecore) to feed InDesign with content to dynamically create a product catalog.
In short we create components in Sitecore that then can be dragged into InDesign and be connected to a certain page in the CMS. We then pull images from the CMS into the InDesign document.
The problem:
On the product pages we fetch images from a network share instead of the CMS. And we do so from a network link in the format \\ip\folder\file.jpg
This works great in our Windows environment but not at all in OSX.
From what I understand the \\ip\folder\file.jpg
format is a windows specific one, so we have also tried the smb://ip/folder/file.jpg
format without luck. The SMB-path actually crashes both the windows and mac version of InDesign.
Any ideas would be hugely appreciated!
