>> ID-Extras has a cool range of InDesign add-ons and scripts. Some are especially for book and other long-document publishing, but many are great for any kind of publishing work you do in InDesign. For example, wouldn't you love to be able to carry over all the font specs from the form fields you create in InDesign over to Acrobat? Of course you would! That's what the FormMagic scripts do. There's a free version and a Pro version, check them out! You can get a special podcast-only 20% discount price until June 30, 2015 on ANY ID-Extras product by using the coupon code save20.

>> Certitec, an Adobe Authorized Training Centre in the UK, is a premiere provider of Adobe InDesign, EPUB, and Adobe DPS training. Certitec hold classes in Cardiff, London, or Bristol. Get booked today onto a Certitec course and experience the latest and greatest software experience from Adobe. Follow them on Twitter at @Certitec and keep up with their Facebook page. If you sign up for a seminar or class in London or Cardiff, and mention you heard about them on InDesignSecrets, you get 20% off the fee!
