While InDesign CS4 included some features for exporting to Flash, the new version has many more. The bad news: At some point, Adobe will start charging for this online service. The good news: InDesign automatically displays comments made online in your page layout.

If you’re not, watch this video from Michael Ninness, an Adobe group product manager:Īnother collaboration goodie: InDesign CS5 works well with CS Review, an Adobe online service that attempts to ease the pain of online commenting between members of a team and between the team and outside clients. If you’re the only person who ever touches the text of your InDesign files, skip this feature. Now it shows you all objects on each layer (before you could see only the name of each layer), and you can affect those objects by selecting, hiding, and changing them - all from within the Layers panel. The revised Layers panel is more like Illustrator and Photoshop. (Sorry, couldn’t resist the pun!) You can drag on one or all corners of a frame to change their radius and shape. This new effect makes it easy to break out the box. Multiple page sizes are also handy for print jobs with complex folds, as the example below demonstrates: With multiple page sizes, the company’s business card, letterhead, and ads can all be in one file, making it simpler to share assets across the closely related projects. The quintessential example of a project that will benefit from this? A brand identity for a new company. It’s been too long coming (QuarkXPress has had this for a while), but InDesign can at last include multiple page sizes in one file. Believe it or not, each example is only one text frame: Check out these examples from Claudia McCue, who’s written an in-depth article on InDesign CS5 in the April/May 2010 issue of InDesign Magazine. You may not think this feature is a big deal - until the first time you don’t have to break one text box into two to create a headline that spans a column. Note that this is not a review that will be coming as soon as InDesign expert Michael Murphy can test the final code, which is not yet available. There are several ways to categorize the changes: big and little print and interactive working by yourself and collaborating. InDesign CS5 is awash in new features and improvements.
