Howdy, y’all! It’s a bright new week and there’s so much to share. I have to run to present my seminar in Los Angeles this morning, so I’m going to keep this short and just give you a quick rundown of what I’ve been looking at recently:
- Glad to see that Isis Imaging Icefields 5.2 has been released, for you halftone and color sep fans.
- Jay Nelson wrote a little article on Getting the Most out of Printing from InDesign in Macworld.
- Brian Wood did a great video on the Distribute Spacing feature in CS5 (including an amazing swap-em trick I didn’t know!)
- Everyone need to know more about metadata and how important it is for epublishing.
- There is a great new PDF and EPUB reader for iPhone and iPad called BlueFire that you should read about. (It’s based on Adobe’s own reader technology, so it can handle DRMed PDFs.)
- Here’s a cool idea: What if you had a web browser inside a floating InDesign panel? What would you do with such a thing? I have a few ideas!
- Are you interested in learning how to script InDesign? Check out this must-have PDF from Peter Kahrel on “Script UI for Dummies”
- Esquire Magazine has come out for the iPad. I don’t know if they used InDesign or Adobe’s DMP technology. Anyone know?
- Chris Paveglio has released version 4 of his Image Catalog for making contact sheets.
- Peachpit Press has released two (count ’em, two!) books about making interactive documents with InDesign: ?
- Claudia McCue’s Fearless Flash: Use Adobe InDesign CS5 and the Tools You Already Know to Create Engaging Web Documents
- And Chris Converse’s Create Interactive Documents using Adobe InDesign CS5 (a book and DVD combo) from peachpit Press!
- Interesting article about iPad publishign: Will Conde Nast’s iPad Bet Pay Off?
- Here is a free “Handy Tools” plug-ins to let you print or export to PDF just the pages you select in the Pages panel
- Keith Gilbert wrote up another way to repair a potentially damaged InDesign document
- Read this little excerpt from Dorothy Hoskins’ XML Publishing with Adobe InDesign, called “How to use InDesign as an XML Skin“
Okay, gotta’ run! Today is going to be fun!
Happy InDesigning!
