    Hi Sjors

    Please let us know if you have the latest version of InDesign and MyDataMerge installed.

    Additionally please open the project, got to the MyDataMerge Menu > File > Package

    Choose Zip and then progress until you have a packed zip. Send it to support@toolboxcode.com and we’ll have a look at it.

    Thank you for sending your files.

    We have replaced the font as it wasn’t included. Your whole setup is correct and it exported to JPEG flawlessly. I can send you the 12 files (even if its the wrong font now).

    It’s pretty hard to debug if we can’t reproduce it.

    • Try checking if any anti-vir apps like Bitdefender are running and allow MyDataMerge to access Files – or deactivate it temporarily for testing reasons.
    • Try restaring InDesign
    • Try restarting the machine (this clears caches) without having the checkbox selected in the shutdown dialog

    Can you point it to a specific file/record where it stops?

    Hi Pat,

    I don’t have any anti virus apps, tried to restart indesign and the iMac and it still is not working.
    It won’t even start, i tried different export ranges.

    Yesterday morning it worked fine.

    Hi there,

    so let’s focus:

    1. Does MyDataMerge not start OR the export?
    2. What if you unselect JPEG and only keep export to InDesign – does this work or won’t any export work?
    3. Can you change the TARGET folder of your export and make sure you don’t select a folder on the desktop or a connected network drive

    Regards, Pat

    Hi Pat,

    1. It’s the export that won’t go any further than 8% and then keeps on hanging there…
    2. Al the other extensions like; .indd.  or .png work just fine and don’t give problems.
    3. Changed the target folder to the documents folder, same problem.

    Phew.

    • Please try to replace the font (as this is what we did on loading the file – as we don’t have your font).
    • Please check if the target folder is empty and no older exports are there

    We cannot reproduce it. One none of our machines. I don’t want to raise hopes – im out of ideas. I will pass it to the developers if they might have an idea on whats up.

    Hi Pat,

    It is working again.
    The only thing I changed is uncheck a option in InDesign when exporting to .jpeg
    (see screenshot)

    Glad you found a solution. Just let us know if there’s anything else you need to know.

    Still I will record this behaviour if others have the same issue in future
