I’m not sure which is more amazing, that Anne-Marie and I just finished our 200th podcast or that this is Articles list number 111! Even more wonderful is that as I look over “the back issues” I see that the old lists and podcasts are almost entirely still relevant today!

Digital Stuff

• Are you creating a digital magazine of some kind (DPS, App Studio, Aquafadas, PDF, Zinio, or whatever?). The 2013 Digital Magazine Awards deadline is next week! Looks like a great award…
• If you’re a DPS user, you may or may not have heard that v28 “end of life”s iOS5. That may or may not affect you (depending on how far back you need to support).
• Men’s Health magazine, from Rodale, has over 125,000 digital subscribers! See why.

Plus-ins and Scripts

• Sometimes it’s hard to tell which objects are on top of which — otherwise known as the page stacking order, or z-order. Now FrameReporter from Rorohiko tells you at a glance. Check it out in this video!
• I continue to be impressed by the improvements that Em Software is making to WordsFlow — a great system for importing and linking Word documents into InDesign documents (so you can edit in both places). Check out the release notes for version 1.2.
• Hey, the folks at CreativeBloq are recommending 15 great InDesign plug-ins!

What’s Adobe Up To?

• Don’t perspire, inspire! Yes, the new Inspire is here!
• Did you know that Adobe has been quietly developing its APPE (Adobe PDF Print Engine) to make it cooler and faster and all that good stuff? Read about the new version 3 here.
• Check it out: a list of every Adobe Community Professional (including many of us here at InDesignSecrets) here on the Adobe site?
• Curious how Adobe’s move to the Creative Cloud is going? They have passed the One Million Subscriber mark!

Art and Design

• Jim Felici has written three great pieces at CreativePro.com on Working with Tables. You must check them out!
• Ever start working on a project and your internal perfectionist voice starts piping up? Meet that voice face to face here: The Perfection Fairy!

Enjoy!
