Design bit by bit: Analysis of Indesign CS3 (on)

Pantone Color in InDesignCS2

indesignCS2 was released in May 2005 and it has been simply modified using the pantone color specification. As far as is known, no changes were made in later versions of indesignCS2. Now, CS3 has been announced, but many people will use indesignCS2 for a period of time, so this is a noteworthy issue.

Top 10 Newest and Coolest Things in InDesign/InCopyCS3

Still taking a wait-and-see attitude toward InDesign and InCopyCS3 There are ten new things to watch.

You may have just heard that Adobe's next-generation Creative Suite and CS3 look very attractive. According to Adobe, they are not just look good... There are some more interesting tools in digital creation.

However, we are a bit tired of hearing about the language of featured packaging. So what does Adobe mean when it comes to "special packaging?" Looking at Indesign CS3 alone, everyone expects no less than 83 new features, such as IncopyCS3. There is such a new feature that it should have value for everyone.

Not everyone's workflow is the same and requirements are not the same. Of course, you don't necessarily use every new feature. Therefore, in consideration, introduce the ten new features.

1, the future interface

The obvious first question is when using new programs because of the new interface. People have different opinions about this, but what everyone agrees with is that I think it should be a brand new panel-oriented interface.

The new InDesign/InCopy panel is still on the side of the screen, unlike the original panel hidden like a drawer on the side of the screen, and now has more readable text descriptions when minimized. If you want to open, just click the icon to expand. Click on the panel to jump back to the interface you just worked on. Combine these features to save your workspace.

Of course, if your monitor is large enough, you can not only place the panels up and down, but you can also place them side by side. What is the most convenient way to browse? InDesign/InCopy can do it.

2, custom working controller

The InDesign control panel is extremely responsive, and it instantly displays when you need it. CS3's control panel takes these experiences to the next level, adding customizations - you can set what you want to set, and you can quickly open the control panel.

3. "Your menu, sir"

Customization/Personalization is more than operator panels. The new interface allows you to customize the menu.
Never used some features? Then drop them and create a new menu with all the features you need. The next time you use it, you can change the color to red (or any of the other eight colors). This is true of your own style.
Thumb-sized page browsing

We see a page or item that we would like to use as a reference. If we can see the entire document unfolding without being narrowed down to an intolerable level, how good it will be. The new panel comes with reduced content displayed on each page, these are optional - if you do not need to, you can close them, but I believe you will love these things.
