Tips and Tricks Obscure InDesign Feature of the Week: Delete End Punctuation News and special offers from our sponsors: gg Recosoft: Open and convert PDF and Windows XPS documents directly in Adobe InDesign CS4/CS5/CS5.5/CS6 right from InDesign's File menu with their latest version (3.5) of PDF2ID, the amazing InDesign plug-in. Be sure to check out their other amazing plug-in for InDesign users, ID2Office — export your InDesign files to Word or Powerpoint! gg Rorohiko: They just keep making ePubCrawler better, and it's still donation-ware! ePubCrawler is a Fixed Layout ePub Assistant for InDesign. The highly-customizable script takes an InDesign document and converts it to a fixed-layout ePub (think kid's books, cookbooks, photography books, etc.) ready to upload to your favorite reseller. This turns a job that normally takes dozens of hours into minutes! Watch any of their six tutorial videos to see how it works. For InDesignSecrets fans: anybody who donates US$50 or more now will get a free license if and when they release it commercially, like a home-grown Kickstarter! -- We still want to hear your stories!
