Someone I know has lost a month's worth of work on InDesign 2025. Photos have disappeared. Some whole pages have gone blank, and some have just lost some of the images. Anyone else had this problem? Any possible solutions? RTs appreciated.

Blackmagic has enabled 32K video editing in its software. But is that just a flex, or actually useful? Here's my take. digitalcameraworld.com/photo… #videoediting #video #filmmaking #blackmagic #davinciresolve #32K #16K #8K #4K
