Adobe InDesign document is a page layout file that is used to create items on print such as: magazines, books and newspapers. These files contain advanced typography, graphics, page content and so much more. This file format supports: text, images and multiple pages.
The documents are able to be made into print or can be electronically distributed, depending on how the user wants it. These files are able to be opened with Adobe’s InCopy, as well.
