Hamburg, Germany (PRWEB) July 28, 2005 -- InDesign and InCopy solution
provider SoftCare today announced that the plug-ins SoftCare Overset Manager and
SoftCare Notes Manager are now available for Adobe Creative Suite 2. SoftCare
Overset Manager gives users total control over text length and overset, and is
the ideal tool for everybody dealing with text-intensive files on a regular
basis. SoftCare Notes Manager improves on the native inline notes feature in
Adobe InDesign and InCopy, allowing to filter notes by date and name and
displaying all notes in a convenient list view. Additionally, both plug-ins
remain compatible with InDesign CS and InCopy CS.
SoftCare has added some
new features to make the work with overset text safer and more convenient. Users
are now able to see if a file contains overset text and which text frames are
affected. From the Overset Manager palette, users can go directly to a specific
overset frame, and start editing the text. Additionally, users will be alerted
when printing or exporting a document containing overset text allowing then to
continue or to cancel the process. This feature guarantees an even higher level
of production security, thus helping to prevent costly mistakes.
A new
preference lets the user decide which corner of a text frame will act as an
anchor to the overset text frame. Overset frames can be placed conveniently at
the top right corner in the document so that even long overset text will be
visible. Alternatively, overset text frames can also be placed to the left of
the original text frame when using right-to-left languages such as Arabic and
Hebrew.
Availability
The plug-ins are now available for InDesign
and InCopy CS and CS2 for Mac OS X and Windows from plug-in stores worldwide
where you can purchase the SoftCare Overset Manager update as well. The SoftCare
Notes Manager update is free of charge. Both plug-ins work seamlessly with
SoftCare's K4 Publishing System. You can download a free tryout version at www.softcare.de/plugins/.
