InDesign is Adobe’s desktop publishing program which helps you design high quality documents for print or the web and used by web designers to create magazine like websites with interactive elements. So lets’ look at the unique features of InDesign CS5 and what makes it so popular.

The most unique feature would be the ability to create interactive documents without writing a line of code with which you can create slideshows, create animation, integrate flash videos, use sounds and allow people to browse through your document like a website and everything you need to do is included in the InDesign CS5 and takes away the need to write the full code for all this.

It contains features that make typography and formatting much easier than before. For example there are preset column and row options you can choose to quickly format the page which saves the time spent on editing.

You can use the gap tool to adjust and resize the frames where it can be stretched or add borders to give your designs more flair. All this can be achieved with a few clicks of the mouse.

It has a host of other features which makes designing much more efficient and high quality oriented.
