It contains a host of advanced text, colour, print and layout features not found in any other application that can be applied to text and objects It also boasts an interface similar to Adobe’s other leading design applications and so is intuitive for users of these applications. Further, Adobe InDesign CS5 integrates seamlessly with the other Adobe applications and can include native Photoshop and Illustrator files, and in CS5 you can now centralise your whole workflow through Adobe Bridge.
