Targeted to creative professionals at every level, InTools brings innovative and timesaving features to Adobe InDesign.

InBooklet

A maintenance release to InBooklet version 2.1.4, an imposition Plug-In for Adobe InDesign, is now available. This version contains fixes to some known issues and is available free of charge to previous InBooklet 2.x users.

Imposer Pro

Imposer Pro is a plug-in for Adobe InDesign that imposes document pages into printer flats. Imposer Pro offers six sheet types (2-Up, 4-Up, 8-Up, 2-Up Consecutive, 3-Up Consecutive, and 4-Up Consecutive), four binding types (Saddle Stitch, Perfect Bound, Stacked, and None) and five imposition types (Standard, Work and Turn, Work and Tumble, Split Web, and Sheet Wise). To meet all your imposition needs — such as using different imposition methods for the same document — you can choose which pages to impose and how many signatures to create.

InEffects

The InEffects plug-in brings all the special effects power of a dedicated illustration or image-editing program directly to Adobe InDesign. With InEffects, you can apply any combination of sophisticated effects such as drop shadows, inner shadows, inner glows, outer glows, bevels, and embossing to any InDesign page object(s). You can save effects as reusable InEffects styles, which can be updated at any time.

InTools

Whatever the InDesign users’ needs are geared towards — layout, design, or production — InTools has something useful.

InTools includes:

InStarburst
Create attention-getting customizable starbursts that are completely editable InDesign objects with InStarburst.

InItemMarks

Use InItemMarks for a quick and convenient way to place custom crop and registration marks for both objects and pages.

InPathfinder

Combine multiple objects into single objects to create compound shapes with InPathfinder. Operations include Combine, Add, Subtract, and more.

InPrint

Select a portion of an InDesign page to either print or save to disk with InPrint. File formats include HTML, EPS, Adobe PDF, TIF and JPEG.

InNudge

Interactively adjust the position and rotation of objects and pictures with the intuitive InNudge palette.

InModify

Consolidate all the options for modifying selected objects or groups into a single context sensitive dialog box. With InModify, procedures that take several different palettes - such as applying a stroke, fill and text inset now require only a single dialog box.

Paste Files Plug-In

The Paste Files command is an alternative to the Place command of Adobe InDesign. With Paste Files, you can specify the files to be placed by copying them to the Clipboard in Finder — you neither need to use the standard Open dialog nor have to deal with drag and drop from Finder. Just choose Copy in Finder, and then choose Paste Files in Adobe InDesign.

Paste Files handles all the files in the clipboard — it’s not limited to a single file as the built-in Place command.

The Paste Files behaves differently depending on whether there is only one file in the clipboard or more than one.

QuickPrint

The foolproof way to create perfect ads.

Your days of worrying about mechanical specs and creative restrictions are over. Now QuickPrint? does all the hard work for you.

How It Works

QuickPrint? is a unique application that makes sure the ads you send to newspapers, magazines, and printers always reproduce the way you intended. Whenever you create a document using the QuickPrint? plug-in and InDesign?, the program automatically embeds all loose elements such as fonts or graphics into a single fully encapsulated EPS or PDF file, eliminating any risk of losing picture elements or other valuable information.

QuickPrint? delivers unparalleled security features to ensure you never have to deal with any unpleasant surprises.

For each new job, the application automatically sets up your documents with the correct type, trim, and bleed specifications for the publisher or printer you’re sending to.

Before QuickPrint? allows you to output any files, it performs over 100 individual quality-control checks. These include tests for jpeg encoding, PostScript? color management, and the effective resolution of a placed image. Depending on the individual publisher, any one of these could cause a problem.

No other file delivery system in the world is this comprehensive about safeguarding your files. It checks against a comprehensive database of publisher specifications to ensure you always get the most accurate representation of your ad.

To be absolutely sure the specifications are always 100% correct, they are constantly updated and maintained by the publishers and printers themselves. So no matter where in the world your document is headed, it’ll always reproduce exactly how you intended.

Save Money, Time and Embarrassment

Ad agencies can forget spending a lot of time and money on film, couriers, and author’s corrections. Now, QuickPrint?, in conjunction with PageStore?, Quickcut’s file delivery program lets you send documents directly to printers and publishers and know they’ll always be perfect every time.

And newspapers, magazines, and printers never again have to waste valuable time preparing jobs for print.
