Colour in Adobe InDesign CS2 - CS4

Adobe InDesign is a program for professional publishing. It offers creative freedom, productivity and precision in the designing of layout- and print products. It works flawlessly with the other Adobe programs, e.g. Adobe Photoshop, Adobe PageMaker, Adobe Illustrator...

The colour system can be integrated by using a so called „Colour field library“. The colours can be applied to the design by Drag&Drop (dragging with the mouse). In one moment you are provided with correct colour quality!
