How it works
Publishers and print designers rely on InDesign because it is built for the realities of print: preflight checks, color management, bleeds, and export to print-ready PDF. It also exports interactive PDFs and EPUBs for digital reading, and it works closely with Photoshop and Illustrator for images and graphics.
InDesign costs $22.99 per month on an annual plan ($34.49 month to month) as a single app, or as part of a Creative Cloud plan. There is no free plan, only a trial. It is the standard choice for anyone who lays out documents professionally.
