I want to run a data merge with text and photos and I want to be able to hyperlink the photo to a website. I have about 400 entries with the data merge that will each be on a separate page but I can't for the life of me figure out how to hyperlink the pictures automatically!

  • Hi Nicole. You'd be better off asking this question on InDesign Secrets, or possibly the SuperUser site on StackExchange. On gd.se this falls under the heading of "Technical Support," and is considered off-topic. Sorry about that. Apr 16, 2015 at 20:21
  • I'm open to these kinds of questions here (despite the rules) but you'll get better answers elsewhere. I think you'll have the best luck with an XML workflow. Try asking around on the Adobe InDesign forums. If you want something really efficient, go to the InD Scripting forum. Apr 16, 2015 at 20:53

InDesign native Datamerge won't allow you to create hyperlinks on the fly. You need at least Scripting to achieve that. A plugin such as EasyCatalog is also a good candidate.
