Adobe® InDesign® Plugin to Import Media

The Noxum Plugin for Adobe® InDesign® enables designers in advertising agencies, printers, publishers or marketing departments to combine valid data from the XML editorial system with individual layouts directly in InDesign®.

The implementation of the Noxum Plugin for Adobe® InDesign® equips the layout program with functions that allow the user direct access to all text and image content of the Noxum Publishing Studio from within InDesign® and maintains control over layout and typography. Users work in InDesign® as usual. The Noxum plugin can be used to call up functions with which images and text content can be found in Noxum Publishing Studio and transferred to the layout program.

Interaction between Product Information Management (PIM) and Adobe® InDesign®

If the PIM component is added to Noxum Publishing Studio, users can also access product data and, for example, transfer article features to InDesign®. Features are often mapped in tables that can also be placed on InDesign® pages. If images, text content or product data change in the editorial system, the frame content of the corresponding InDesign® documents can be automatically updated with all changes. The language exchange of content is also possible at the touch of a button.

In this way, products such as flyers, brochures, posters, catalogs, package inserts, etc. can be created just-in-time in all variants with greater process reliability in Adobe® InDesign®.
