However, I do not use linked Illustrator files. I create all my assets in
InDesign and save them as library items. I have categorized all my assets
and grouped them into 6 libraries which also include certain screen

I usually create my wireframes in InDesign and publish them as PDFs. Thermo
would save a lot of time and effort when I need to create these
