Adobe InDesign CS6 software is a versatile desktop publishing application that gives you pixel-perfect control over design and typography. Create elegant and engaging pages for print, tablets, and other screens. Use Adaptive Design Tools to easily repurpose layouts to look great on a variety of pages sizes, orientations, or devices.
What's new
Liquid Layout
Apply liquid page rules to automatically adapt content when you create an alternate layout with a different size or orientation in InDesign.
Alternate Layout
Efficiently create and design multiple versions of a layout for different devices and print needs, all within a single InDesign file.
Linked content
Link content within or across InDesign documents so that changes (including interactivity) made to the parent text or object are applied to all linked children objects.
Content Collector tools
Grab text and objects from an existing layout using the Content Collector. In a new layout, use the Content Placer to add items in the order you want them to appear.
PDF forms within InDesign
Create form fields directly within InDesign before you export to PDF. You can also assign the tab order in InDesign using the Articles panel.
Middle Eastern language support
Buy and update the Middle Eastern version of InDesign directly from Adobe for easier localization of global documents and enhanced functionality.
Pages panel enhancements
Display alternate layouts in the Pages panel to organize content efficiently.
Split window
View two side-by-side layouts within the same document to compare the look and feel of the layouts and help ensure consistency.
Recently used fonts
Access fonts you use frequently. Recently used fonts appear at the top of the font list.
Persistent text frame fitting options
Set frames to grow with additional text, based on simple parameters. Expand and shrink frames automatically for headlines, callouts, or other variable content.
Grayscale preview
Preview your layouts in grayscale to see how they will look on a black-and-white device or when printed in black and white.
Grayscale PDF export
Export PDF files in grayscale directly from the Print dialog box.
Key object alignment
Align selected items to a key object you define.
Hunspell dictionary enhancements
Hunspell dictionary enhancements
Complex calculations
Calculate values in panels and dialog boxes using complex calculations (for example, 12.5p/2x3).
Enhanced split and span support
Keep lines together in paragraphs that split or span columns.
Interactive PDF exported as pages
Export an interactive PDF as pages instead of spreads.
Export to PNG
Export your InDesign document to PNG, a lossless format, for use on the web. You can export the entire document, part of the document, or individual items.
Enhanced zoom for linked objects
Zoom in to a linked object from the Links panel to evaluate it more clearly.
Extension set management
Enable or disable groups of extensions based on your current workflow.
Indic language support
Use the World-Ready Composer, an alternate composition engine, to work with Hindi, Punjabi, and other Indian languages, as well as complex script languages such as Arabic and Hebrew.
Interactive HTML
Include interactive HTML — such as Google Maps and animation developed with Adobe Edge software — in InDesign layouts. Interactivity is retained when exporting to HTML, EPUB3, or .folio for Adobe Digital Publishing Suite.
Style mapping in linked text
Control how content in linked text is styled. Specify different text styles for parent text and children.
Enhanced packaging support
Package InDesign projects for handoff in Adobe Digital Publishing Suite* workflows, including functionality such as overlays.

Top-notch product; would recommend to anyone
The advice I have for others using Adobe InDesign is that you can literally teach yourself how to use the product. You just have to dive in and use the product and you can create great things! Great product and great resource for all.
Adobe InDesign has impacted my work because it allows me to create all sorts of projects while using one platform. I love how easy the navigation and interface is. It's easy to export and share files with my team and organization.
Pros
Adobe InDesign is a great product. I specifically use it to make flyers, brochures, magazines, graphics, pamphlets, and more. It’s easy to use and well worth the money. I love how easy the interface is and how I can navigate easily through the product.
Cons
The least helpful thing about Adobe InDesign is that sometimes it crashes. I’ve reported the issue multiple times, but it still happens. I have never lost any of my files, it is overall just an inconvenience. It wouldn't change my mind about using the product though.
InDesign - InDream for Layout
I use InDesign for any layout needs from PDF documents to business cards and everything in between. The character styles, page layout, and preview modes help make this the most efficient and easiest to use layout software you can find.
Pros
As with every other Adobe product, again this is far and beyond the industry standard. Compared to products like Microsoft word, this program looks like far and beyond future technology. The freedom to create and correct.
Cons
Price can be a big factor when deciding which software to go with. Like the rest of the Adobe CC suite, Indesign is fairly expensive if you are not using it ona fairly regular basis. Also, if you do not customize the UI elements and tool to your liking, the default layouts can be tricky and fairly complicated to use.
