Use InDesign to create and publish engaging documents for print, online, or tablet devices. This release contains several enhancements and new
features that provide you with pixel-perfect control over design and typography for publishing to all media. With Adobe Digital Publishing Suite, you
can design and publish for tablet devices using the familiar InDesign workflows.
Alternate layouts and Liquid Layout page rules, give you the flexibility to design for multiple page sizes, orientations, or aspect ratios.
Alternate layouts
Use Alternate Layouts if you require different page sizes for print or digital publishing within the same document. You can use it to create different
sizes of a print advertisement. Or to design the horizontal and vertical layouts for devices such as the Apple iPad or Android tablets.
Alternate layouts and the updated Pages panel
Used in combination with Liquid Layout, you can significantly reduce the amount of manual work required to re-layout content for every new page
size and orientation. You can also redefine liquid page rules, create links to original stories, automatically copy text styles to a new style group, and
activate Smart Text Reflow to repaginate the story in the new page size.
To create an alternate layout, do one of the following:
Choose Layout > Create Alternate Layout
Choose Create Alternate Layout from the Pages panel menu
