The OC supports inserting transcoded Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign images.

Note that users will see Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign assets in the Office Connector even if this hasn't been configured. However, they won't be able to insert them before the following configurations have been done:

In the DAM Center, locate the group (e.g., “Groups → User type”)

Open the options for the located group by clicking it.

...

Locate the “Download Qualities” menu.

...

Ensure that the group has the desired download qualities registered for the type “Any.” If some are missing, add them. (See screenshot below.)

The suggested download qualities are:

...
