Import images from web via CSV in Indesign CS4 |
|
Hi,
I am using Indesign CS4
I have a CSV export from a database with products and the url to the
product picture. I want to import the information for the products and
the picture via data merge. I added the @ in the name of the column
where the url to the pictures is. Everything works perfect when I use
a lokal path, but I need to get the pictures from the website.
Is it possible to import pictures from a website via CSV data merge?
What steps are needed for that?
Would be great if you could help me.
Best Regards,
Gloria

I have exactly the same problem, I dont want to have save and store
the images onto my computer when they are already saved on an external
save and I have the URL address. Is it possible to do?
Thanks in advance for your help
