    Do you think Web Fonts would help resolve this issue, or am I still going to run into the same brick wall? I considered using a Google Font locally on my desktop, and calling upon @font-face through the HTML tactic.

    I’m glad you see my pain point here.

    I have tried really dumbing down the InDesign typo settings. I have removed auto-kerning, composer, and set letter-spacing to word-spacing to 100%. I have only continued down this road because I was informed that it has been done with iPad materials here where they were created in InDesign and recreated in HTML5 with pixel-perfection.

    I just don’t see it honestly, I’m preparing my flag pole to raise my white flag. InDesign in it’s nature was not designed to be creating HTML Emails. Any advice on a better program that could provide templates out to an agency where they could mock up an email and provide back so that I could code it in HTML/CSS?

    Thanks for your advice/knowledge

    Gotcha. Sorry for the confusion.

    I took a look, but I don’t think this will be the solution. Let me give a little more context.

    We have created InDesign templates that we are going to allow people to build HTML emails with. They will create a low-res comp using modular content from a CMS system. I will need to create the HTML using the modular content from the CMS system and use CSS to stylize the content to match the low-res InDesign comp.

    It appears with in5 that you are generating the HTML content from the InDesign and sending that out. I actually need the CMS to generate the HTML content and use CSS to just stylize/postion it.

    Can you add any specifics of why viewing in CS5 would make a difference than CS6?
