So my work flow would be update data in excel.


Can you make dynamic linked images from Illustrator to InDesign? Meaning I have the data in my excel sheet, that links to the Illustrator which links to InDesign. One thing I did find is that you can make dynamically linked data to charts and graphs in Illustrator. I have been googling for a couple hours to try and find a way to make InDesign graphs tie to excel or dynamically link graphs from excel to InDesign. One thing they use in PageMaker that must be do able in some fashion in the new program is having some graphs tied to some data (on a database or an excel sheet) that when the data is updated the graphs are updated. We are looking at InDesign as a possible replacement. They are trying to move off PageMaker because it will no longer work at some point. My small company has been using PageMaker for years.
