Press Release
Rorohiko Workflow Resources, a software development and consultancy company targeting the prepress and publishing area announces the immediate availability of version 1.0.5 of its BarredText InDesign Plug-In.
The BarredText plug-in allows InDesign users to mark text with a dynamic vertical bar in the margin, similar to a popular feature in Adobe FrameMaker.
The features include:
* Anchor a vertical bar into the margin of selected text-range (for example, to visually mark edits to a text).
* Bar remains attached to text range when text range is moved around.
* Bar moves, expands or shrinks as needed when text is added to or removed from the marked text range.
* Bar auto-splits as necessary when text is flowing through multiple text frames.
* Easily tweak the visual appearance of any bars in a document through a named swatch and object style.
A fully functional, time-limited demo of the plug-in is available for download here. To purchase a single install license of BarredText for US$19, simply install the software and click “Get License…” when the “beg” dialog appears the next time you assign a text bar.
Supported platforms: InDesign CS3, CS4 or CS5 on Mac OS X or Windows.
