This option is available in Daminion Server 7.2 or higher. Daminion Connector is not supported in Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere, and InDesign versions released before 2021!
Daminion Connector helps to integrate Daminion with Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, Premiere, and Photoshop without the need to download/upload files from/to Daminion. It allows you to work with the same InDesign document on multiple computers, avoid broken links and decrease the size of the InDesign documents by using medium-res versions of the images.
Note: Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, Premier, and Photoshop should be installed on your computer.
