Dear Swivle user, we are in the process of migrating the Swivle documentation to the main WoodWing Help Center.

The article that you are reading now will therefore not be updated anymore.

For the latest information about this topic, please visit the new version of this article.

Files that are stored in Swivle can be easily placed on an InDesign layout by dragging them from Swivle.

All files that are selected in Swivle are loaded into the InDesign place gun from which you can place them in the regular manner.


Requirements

For this to work, make sure that Swivle for InDesign is installed. This connects Swivle with InDesign.
