InReview: Table Tools for InDesign
|
This article appeared in Issue 20 of CreativePro Magazine.InDesign’s table creation and editing features first appeared 21 years ago in InDesign 2.0. While their scope, precision, and typographic control were groundbreaking at the time, Adobe hasn’t made significant improvements to InDesign’s table features in many years. That’s a shame. The resulting tables are often large, detailed, and complex. But, wait—don’t we present information in table form because that information is complex in the first place?
As designers, we find ourselves trying to fit lots of columns of information into a finite space, and tables turn into a production challenge as we work with them as quickly and efficiently as possible. We long for a better table experience.
This is where Table Tools can help.
