Publishing Assistant equips Bible typesetters to create high-quality print layouts from Paratext projects through integration with Adobe’s powerful InDesign page layout application. It accurately converts project texts into fully styled Adobe InDesign documents, and automates and validates many common page layout tasks, so that new scripture translations can be accurately and efficiently formatted for printing.
