Re: [O] [OT] org - InDesign integration possible?

No, I don't use it myself, but I expect using the ODT exporter, 
opening in OpenOffice or similar, and saving to .doc or .rtf for 
import into InDesign is your best bet. (As to whether .doc or .rtf, 
experiment. In my limited experience designers prefer RTF, for good 
reason, but OpenOffice RTF export has been quirky for me in the past.)


Cheers,

Hi list,

I've seen a designer friend layout a book in InDesign so quickly and
the output is amazing. I wonder if there's a way to feed text into
InDesign documents through a plugin ? If so, a book could be written
in text (org) and then fed into inDesign? Anyone around use / ever
used InDesign for layout?

Cheers,
