Overall Satisfaction with Adobe InDesign

We use InDesign on the daily when working on catalogs, decks, sale sheets. It's a great tool when you have to lay out multiple pages including spreads when submitting artwork over to our printer. Easy to work with and love the overall layout when you have to manage pages, assets, and a plus when adding hyperlinks to objects.
  • Layout
  • Spread
  • Fast
  • Easy to setup
  • There are times when fonts and linked images go missing or need to be relinked even if root files were not moved.
  • There can be glitches at times.
  • Speed over quality. Would love the software to work faster with multiple files open.
  • Page layout
  • File asset gathering
  • Preflight
  • Time we've saved working in the software.
  • Minimizes the back and forth with our printer.
  • Cross platform compatibility.
Adobe Illustrator and QuarkXPress are great but also very limiting. I personally love illustrator but it's not meant to create page layouts when working on multiple pages and I'm used to working with QuarkXPress because of printers in the past but a majority of the printers have all upgraded to InDesign.

When working on booklets, multiple-page files, I highly recommend using InDesign. Illustrator is capable but there are limitations that InDesign makes it much easier to use. Especially when having to layout and export in a spreadsheet style. Overall file handling is very easy with InDesign when handing files over. The interface is clean and you can even block off all objects off the canvas so it doesn't clutter the overall space
