Page layout and publishing

Make every page part of the story.

Arrange text and artwork across a publication in a native editor. Keep the document editable as it grows, then export pages or a PDF and exchange layouts through IDML.

What you
can do.

Think across pages

Build with pages and spreads, parent pages and bleeds. See a publication as a connected document rather than a collection of flat images.

Keep text and artwork flexible

Compose with text frames, styles and placed images, so the elements remain available for the next editorial pass.

Take the publication elsewhere

Save the native document, export page PNGs or PDF, and use IDML interchange when the layout needs to move between workflows.
