The latest version of InDesign is a versatile application that can efficiently repurpose page layouts for print and screen-based output, and create interactive PDF forms independently of Acrobat Pro
InDesign CS6
InDesign has evolved over the years from its original print-oriented DTP focus to a multi-faceted digital publishing platform. That requires flexible tools for creating not only traditional page layouts, but also for adapting them to new platforms such as tablets and smartphones, as well as turning out interactive documents like PDF forms. In CS6, Adobe has analysed the workflows that today's designers routinely tackle and delivered new InDesign functionality that should make them more productive.
InDesign is in three out of the four CS6 suites: Design Standard (£1,032 ex. VAT; upgrade from £219), Design/Web Premium (£1,509 ex. VAT; upgrade from £298) and Master Collection (£2,223 ex. VAT; upgrade from £397). On its own, InDesign CS6 costs £556 (ex. VAT; upgrade from £95). InDesign CS6 is also available via a Creative Cloud subscription (£38.11 ex. VAT per month on an annual contract).
