Hi @endeavourthelimits Actually, if you watch the video, we see we show you how to do it for free. If you need specific assistance, just let us know.

In Windows, you can use xvi32 to fix files:

1. Download and unzip xvi32 onto your desktop

2. Drop your INDD file onto xvi32.exe (it will look similar to the video)

3. In the left-hand grid, click on the squares until you find 7F (bottom-left corner shows address)

4. In the menu bar at the very top, click "Edit" and "Delete to cursor" (near the bottom)

5. Now click "File" in the menu bar and "Save As..." and call it something like "my file fixed.indd"

Should see you right. :-)

Exactly, how did you know that 128 bytes were dirt?

[justcassidy]

so im trying to do this, how did you know how many bits were dirt?

[IBGECKO]

I'm lost at 14 seconds in--what are you doing and why? Where do I click? How did you get 128 bits of data--and what does 80 have to do with anything? I'm not sure of the sequence here.

You have to walk us through like we're 2-yrs old.

In this particular case in the movie, the InDesign file somehow had 128 bytes of "dirt" or junk in front of the real data. Via the HEX editor we delete that dirt, we use a HEX editor because a text editor could screw up the binary file.

Now we could count 128 bytes in the file but it's easier to use the 'selection' counter in the lower right corner of the 0xED screen to count the bytes for us. This counter is in hex and the hexadecimal number 80 equals the decimal number 128.
