InReview: iziImport
You may have web content that you’d like to repurpose for another medium, such as print or PDF. And websites are ephemeral; useful resources, art portfolios, and great writing can disappear as websites are updated, migrated, or abandoned. How do you get all of that content out of a website and down to your computer? iziImport, an extension by Revolumedia, is an answer to that question. It can download content directly into an InDesign layout from compatible websites, such as those built using WordPress.

Hi Conrad, thanks for publishing this article. I tried and subscribed to iziImport and I failed to get it to work.
I believe it is because my hostname is “localhost”. Would you know of a workaround for that by chance?

Hi Dante, I tried iziImport only with WordPress sites located on a web hosting service, so if “localhost” is not working in the Server Name field, I am not sure how iziImport might need to be set up for that. It’s probably best to contact Revolumedia and ask them.
Try using the Contact Us form at the bottom of the iziImport web page (iziimport.com); they should be able to provide a much better answer than I can.
