How about fixing InDesign’s Export to EPUB tools?
How about fixing InDesign’s Export to EPUB tools? Sure, you can convert an InDesign file to EPUB, but it really doesn’t do a complete job. Hanging indents and alignment of lists come in in a very spotty way. The alignments and spacing to hanging indents don’t hold. And then, while straight Roman text converts fairly nicely, when there are switches to italic or boldface text the type tends to get all scrunched up and is not at all presentable. I thought the best part of the ongoing subscription model was that fixes to issue would be forthcoming in a much, much quicker manner than with software updates every year or so. For the most part that’s true. But the continued messy results I mention for the conversion process from InDy to EPUB really needs to be fixed. It’s taking away from InDy’s reputation and use as a professional design and layout tool. I understand that hand-coding CSS can prob’ly remedy this, but I’m long past the stage where I’ve kept up any semblance of coding skills. I’m semi-retired and don’t think it’s too much to ask that InDesign get with the program. (Sorry for the bad pun!)
