Hello,
I accidentally deleted a part of my text on InDesign and then saved my document, which overwrote the version containing the deleted part. Is there a place on my computer where previous backups of an InDesign document are stored, please?
I work on a Mac, if that makes a difference...
Thank you in advance for your answers.

On MAC no idea.... sorry..
But on PC if you haven't closed InDesign you have a certain number of undo actions available (usually the last 10)..
If you haven't performed too many actions, you can restore your text.. but for that you must not have closed your file....
Otherwise, the recovery folder is defined in the menu "Edit/preferences/file handling"... on PC... on MAC the menus are often different..
However, this folder is for file recovery in case of a crash.. not for a voluntary closure.
