nDesign CS3 is the fifth version of Adobe’s flagship publishing tool, a
product that came into its own with the third version (CS, which stands
for Creative Suite). Widely regarded as the best layout tool today,
InDesign CS3 continues to benefit from ongoing improvement from its 
makers at Adobe Systems.
Every new version of InDesign has brought significant new capabilities to
your fingertips, and CS3 is no different. This new version introduces several
key additions that make it easier to produce flexible documents, such as
the ability to create text variables so the same document can have different
versions of, say, a chapter heading or copyright line. Catalog publishers,
for example, will love these additions. Adobe has also improved lots of
features — some big, some small — to both simplify the product’s use and
to enhance its capabilities. For example, a retooling of the feature palettes
helps reduce interface clutter, while the introduction of new lighting effects
extends design options.
For a quick overview of what’s new in InDesign CS3, Appendix B
puts it all in one place.
InDesign users fall into two camps: recent converts from QuarkXPress or
even the long-defunct PageMaker, and people who’ve used at least one previ-
ous version of InDesign. If you’re an experienced user of previous InDesign
versions, you already know the InDesign approach. That’s great — you’re a
step ahead! Feel free to skip this chapter or just skim it for a refresher. But if
you’re new to InDesign, please read on.
