convert adobe ".indd" files for Libre??

[larrym2]

Hello All;Been using Ubuntu for years, currently using KDE with 14.4. and Libre Office 3.I currently am searching for a way to convert adobe's ".indd" graphics files to a Libre-friendly format. This is one of the few file types I have encountered that Libre doesn't open. I searched some but didn't find anything useful. Any help greatly appreciated.Thanks!:confused:

Hmm, I've been looking around and I'm not sure InDesign files can be opened with other applications. The only thing that could be done is save them from InDesign as pdf and open them with any application you like but you'd loose the editing.

Thanks for the reply bapoumba. I need editing ability, so yes, the pdf option does me no good. Obviously there is a proprietary issue involved, but open source developers often disregards such 'niceties' as being contrary to their mission. Since this hasn't happened yet for Adobe's InDesign files, unlike some of its other products, I assume that InDesign has a small installed base and/or little interest such as mine.:(
