Adobe InDesign is used to work with our longer courses and documents. It is easier to work with and has far fewer hiccups than Microsoft Word. I really enjoy using libraries for easy access to fonts, logos, and colors of the brand. Adobe InDesign saves time due to its ease of use.
  • Design layout
  • Shortcuts
  • Libraries
  • Synchronization with the rest of the Adobe family
Adobe InDesign is well suited for long-form documents and less suited for single-page documents with intricate details.
  • Libraries
  • The cloud feature
  • Error indicators
  • Makes me more efficient thus able to hit more objectives sooner
  • Makes everything look more professional
Quark used to be used much more. Adobe InDesign is now the preferred layout software for publishers. Canva is not as robust and does not have the same functionality.
