The Future of Digital Publishing
Adobe has just released a sneak peek of their software that created the much talked about Wired Magazine for the iPad. Adobe states they will be releasing the software later this summer on their labs site (usually a free update), here it is straight from the horses mouth:
Earlier this year when WIRED Magazine launched its digital edition (and sold more issues than the newsstand version without cannibalizing print sales) we noted that it was created with InDesign CS5 along with new publishing technologies. Today, we’ve released a short video that overviews these new technologies, including more detail on how they fit into the digital magazine authoring workflow.
Late this summer, we’ll post these new publishing technologies on Adobe Labs so a broad set of media, corporate and retail catalog publishers will be able to create compelling content experiences. Using this Digital Magazine Solution, these publishers can create immersive content without having to hire additional developers or invest in extensive retraining for staff. Publishers can add interactivity without writing code via InDesign and create monetizable digital magazines for the Apple iPad – with other platforms and devices expected in the future.
I’m really excited to get my hands on this software to see how it works, and I strongly believe that this will be a huge step forward in the future of print media.
