Thanks to Apple's last-minute prohibition, CS5 doesn't provide the hoped-for route to iPad, and wider rumblings about Flash in the industry mean it's probably not the right basis for a long-term digital publishing strategy. To an extent, this is playing catchup with QuarkXPress 8, which already offers basic Flash authoring. You can create hyperlinks so clicking a button or icon on a page loads another page, and buttons can have intelligent Normal, Rollover and Click states. Through a new set of panels, Keynote-style transitions can be applied so that text or pictures fade or fly in and out, and page turn effects can be added. Together, these features aren't just handy, they enable completely new approaches to text flow, especially when preparing templates for non-designers. There's the option to automatically balance columns. This is well done, though with a few catches: you need to have Bridge running for it to work, and there's still no integration with iPhoto or Aperture libraries.Īs well as setting a number of columns within a text frame, you can now split it horizontally and vary the column layout in each section. You can trawl through resizable thumbnails, filter results by rating or label, or search by keyword, then drag one or more pictures into your layout to place them, maintaining the link to the image file. And so it has.Ī new feature shared with Photoshop is Mini Bridge, a panel that brings the browsing capabilities of Bridge – the media manager included since CS2 – right into the app.

It's a battle Adobe seems to be winning, but with QuarkXPress 8 set to be followed by another upgrade, InDesign CS5 needed to come out fighting.
