InDesign CS2 04/04/2005 02:25 AM
Adobe announced today the latest version of its layout and design program, Adobe InDesign CS2. This new version improves the speed and efficiency of designers in a variety of workflows from text-intensive book, magazine, and newspaper production to high-end XML-based cross-media workflows. Designers can increase productivity and create more consistent designs by saving graphic, text, and frame-level attributes as Object Styles, which are easy to apply and globally update. Exporting objects with the new InDesign snippets features enables users to easily share or repurpose live InDesign content and layouts from part of a page.

Macworld review: Adobe InDesign CS

Macworld review: Adobe InDesign CS 01/22/2004 02:13 AM
InDesign CS is a subtle yet very powerful update to Adobe's publishing flagship. The previous version, InDesign 2.0, introduced most of the key features that made the young program a publishing powerhouse: the word-processor–like table editor, the Photoshop-level transparency features, and highly sophisticated typographic control. This version brings enhancements to many of these features, and it has several sensational new ones, such as nested styles and a much more efficient console for accessing text and object attributes. Although InDesign's interface is still somewhat complex, this is a more capable and more functional InDesign; in due time, this program will easily claim the publishing crown.

Adobe releases patches for Acrobat and

Adobe releases patches for Acrobat and
Reader 06/17/2005 03:18 PM
Adobe Systems on Wednesday rolled out patches for security vulnerabilities found in Adobe Reader 7.0 and 7.0.1, and in Adobe Acrobat 7.0 and 7.0.1.

The hole in the products, referred to as an XML External Entity vulnerability, under certain circumstances allows XML scripts to be used to discover a user's local files.

According to Adobe officials, the vulnerability is within the Adobe Reader control. If an XML script is embedded in JavaScript, it is possible to discover the existence of local files, according to a security advisory from the company. An attacker could then maliciously use the gathered information. But the statement pointed out that the local files can be found only if the attacker knows the complete file names and paths in advance of such an attack.

The vulnerability impacts Acrobat and Reader running on Windows and Mac platforms.

Adobe recommends that Reader and Acrobat for Windows customers download the updates provided on the Adobe Web site here.

The company said it will release an update for the Mac OS versions shortly. Until the Mac patch is available, Adobe advises end-users to disable any Acrobat JavaScript. This should protect systems from the vulnerability.

However you have to put this in context, which is that this represents a very small percentage of the UK market and is certainly not a trend."

Pfeiffer says QuarkXPress Lags Behind
InDesign CS 02/01/2005 10:05 PM
Pfeiffer Consulting has conducted an "independent, high-level technology analysis of Adobe InDesign CS and QuarkXPress 6.x, in order to allow decision makers in the publishing industry to evaluate the comparative strengths of both applications." IT-Enquirer has interpreted that study (saving us 295 Euros if we are willing to trust their summary) in this article and has come to the conclusion: "Stay Away from QuarkXPress 6.5...Pfeiffer found frequent and reproducible crashes, and serious reproducible dysfunctions of existing product functionality. The problems were so severe that a system's data integrity was in peril. Pfeiffer therefore warns against deploying version 6.5 without checking if Quark has solved the problems found by Pfeiffer."

I think the folks in the QuarkXPress Commiseration Area of our Forums could have saved both organizations a bit of time and money as they have all experienced these issues first hand...these issues and many others.

Book Publishers Selling Direct - Pissing

Book Publishers Selling Direct - Pissing
Off Book Retailers 02/13/2004 05:52 AM
One of the struggles that companies have as distribution and sales mechanisms change is handling legacy channel conflict issues. Dell became huge by selling direct to customers, but when rival Compaq started to move in that direction, their retail partners freaked out - and Compaq had to scale back their plans. It appears that book publishers are now going through the same process. They've realized that if someone is looking for info about certain books on their site, it makes sense to also offer them a chance to buy it. However, it's pissing off retailers, who don't want to hear that their suppliers are competing with them. Retailers say a reasonable compromise would be having the publishers point to the retailers, which was my first response as well. However, then it becomes a political situation of who do you link to and why? There's also the fact that this makes for a less enjoyable consumer experience. I know that, more than once, I've been annoyed at online sites where I go for info on buying a product, but when I try to buy am given a big list of retailers instead of a way to buy right away.
