LEO REVZIN  To DENNIS_H: Dear Dennis, thanks for your interest in LinkOptimizer.

Since you're very new to MacUpdate, just wanted to explain you that developers post here to inform about software updates, not to get reviews. If you'd like to know more about LinkOptimizer as well as Zevrix Solutions support and update policies, please feel free to contact me. Just visit http://zevrix.com and click the Contact link.

DENNIS_H  Note that all the reviews are 2 years old. This stupid thing shows up on the site every week or 2. Does anybody really care? Stop spamming macupdate with these constant miniscule update notices.  
(Version 4.0.1)

FRANKFX  It works! And it does it real fast. Linkoptimizer saves a lot of time and is custumisable to my needs. Can't all this be done manually? Yes it can but I rather spent my time on something more usefull like playing World of Warcraft.

If your're using InDesing a lot you really should give it a try. Also see the Q&A section of de Zevrix website for some more details.

5 stars for developers support.  
(Version 2..5)

FLEC65  Awesome! I tried the demo with a 7.3Gb job in InDesign containing 126 links. LinkOptimizer optimized the files to 2Gb in about 20 minutes (including backup of original files and applying slight sharpen mask to optimized images). Pretty impressive! In fact, Link Optimizer was faster doing that than InDesign packaging the job for DVD burning. I'm now convinced that LinkOptimizer is an invaluable tool for our design studio.

KOBALT  great app! i can finally do in indesign what i used to do in quark with docuslim and at a much lower cost (don't get any ideas now, devs!)

just waiting for the 1.5.1 updater to be come available - hope it's soon ...  
(Version 1.5.1)

STICKMAN67  This product is magic.

It does exactly what it claims to do, and fast.

Not only that, but the developer contacted me within hours when I reported a "bug" (which turned out to be a problem with InDesign finding graphic files but not updating file-path information for the links, despite a change to a folder name), and kept contacting me until the problem was resolved.

Even if you used this only as a calculator for effective resolution it would be amazing. That it can then optimize images to that resolution automatically makes it a must-have, especially for those producing print-ready InDesign files.

Highly recommended.
