      OK. Simple question (you would think). But, when I asked Adobe tech. support, on three diffent tries, I received three different answers:Yes, No, and Maybe. Truth! So, here goes: Can I import work from Photo Impact Pro 13, by Nova Development, into Indesign CS5.5? Anyone care to take a shot at the answer before I purchase the product? Thanks.

      No idea what photo impact pro is, but it sounds like an image editing program (similar to photoshop). If so, then you should be able to export images as jpg or tiff file format, and those you can import into InDesign.

      A Google turned up some effects-based photo editing program and apparently it can do everything … except Save As one of TIFF or JPEG! Scouring the feature list didn't reveal any more.

      At least I saw 'png' mentioned (once), but best for InDesign would have been TIFF. JPEG is a reasonable alternative (but it'd do nice for real photographic work, of the kind this program is targeted for).

      Why don't you download a trial of InDesign before you buy?

      Trial last 30 days. If you have Photo Impact 13 then see what file formats it saves or exports to.

      inDesign can File>Place

      tiff Tagged Image File Format
      gif Graphic Interchange Format
      jpg, jpeg Joint Photographic Experts Group
      bmp Bitmap
      eps Encapsulated PostScript
