Free InDesign Plug-ins for Every CreativePro Week Attendee

News flash: Our partner, Em Software, is offering every CreativePro Week 2019 attendee a complimentary subscription for their InDesign workflow plugins, WordsFlow and DocsFlow!

These plugins create live links to Microsoft Word documents or Google Docs, and allow you to update the files in a way that is simply not possible any other way. Just think: designers can be laying out pages in InDesign while editors keep making changes in Word—and these plug-ins seamlessly merge the two versions together. The results can do miracles for your production schedules!

WordsFlow is the InDesign plug-in that CreativePro Week co-host David Blatner called “the thing I’ve been waiting for for 20 years!” And DocsFlow is similar, but uses Google Docs as the editor.

You can learn more about WordsFlow and DocsFlow here:
WordsFlow: http://emsoftware.com/try/wordsflow
DocsFlow: http://emsoftware.com/try/docsflow

These subscriptions are worth over $250 and are good until December 31, 2019—so the sooner you sign up, the more value you’ll get.
