Placing remote files in documents
While working with a document in an integrated Adobe application, you can use the Place command to
place a remote file into the document, just as you would with a local file. You can also drag a remote file
from Adobe Bridge to an open document.
Always add assets to the DAM server before placing them in a managed document. When you place a file
that is not managed by the DAM server into a file that is managed, you cannot keep track of the placed
asset's versions or status.
View file status and versions in the Links panel
The Links panel in Illustrator or InDesign displays additional information about placed files from the DAM
server, identifying whether a linked file is being edited and which user is doing the editing. You can also
use the Links panel to determine whether the linked file needs to be updated to a newer version from the
DAM server.
