During the good ol' days of CS4 - I used to copy basic shapes or symbols / outlined text / simple logos from Illustrator into InDesign for different reasons but mainly to keep links (and broken links) to a minimum when packaging / archiving jobs. It was a pretty effective workflow for said items and also coud be included into InDesign libraries too.
I'm wondering why this feature is missing from CS6 (now greeted with a "EPS Import : Undefined Error " Message when a paste from Illustrator is attempted)?
Please note: We are talking basic shapes here, not complex vectors.
Fingers crossed this is sorted for the next update, or perhaps someone has a simple workaround?
Interestingly, you can copy exactly the same shape/vector from Illustrator CS4 into InDesign CS6 without error message.
