Adobe InDesign Module for Catalog Builder

Catalog Builder’s new Adobe InDesign module enhances Catalog Builder’s automated design functionality with sophisticated graphics, typography, and formatting capabilities. Catalog Builder users that have strict corporate design requirements or highly creative design staffs can choose to create customized InDesign templates and apply them to product categories in the Catalog Builder database.

Catalog Builder is tightly integrated with Adobe In-Design so the database-driven benefits of the software are still available to the completely customized catalog. It isn’t just a plug-in for Adobe InDesign. Catalog Builder controls the InDesign capabilities much like a human would.

For example, Catalog Builder applies customized design components to any subset of data in the catalog database. This rules-based approach allows the graphic designer to produce sales and marketing tools like vendor-focused and niche-market catalogs, seasonal flyers, printed price lists and full-line catalogs without designing from scratch every time.

Catalog Builder also features a unique “reverse update” capability for catalogs designed with the InDesign module. If a change needs to be made to a catalog at any time, the user can make the correction in the catalog page itself and Catalog Builder will update the database and correct all occurrences of the data throughout the catalog.
