Editor's Corner: No Strings Attached

If you use InDesign, study magazine layout, or are interested in Acrobat's interactive capabilities, it's time to download the new trial issue of InDesign Magazine.

InDesign users will benefit from the short tips, in-depth how-tos, plug-in reviews, and a sample-heavy profile of an award-winning InDesign shop.

Magazine aficionados may be interested in the unusual horizontal orientation, and anyone curious about interactive PDFs can punch buttons to their hearts' content.

If, like me, you hate "free trial offers" that sneakily rope you into subscriptions, don't worry. Downloading the trial issue doesn't commit you to anything. If you want to subscribe, you can. (The last page of the trial tells you how and gives you a discount code.) If you don't want to subscribe, no problem — there's nothing to cancel.

Here's the trial issue download link: http://www.indesignmag.com/trialissue.php

And should you like to comment on anything you see, I'm all ears!
