Experience Adobe InDesign ... on steroids! While many designers in the world are wasting hours after hours trying to create layouts that works, our clients only need to spend minutes. Watch a video on how to go from scratch to a finished layout!
Create grid-based layouts in no-time, all settings are applied directly. Never again do you need to name layers, measure margins, setup the body copy to fit the layouts or measure the x or H-height for applying image-lines that are used to align text and images with killer-precision for the most beautiful layouts and typography. You also never again have to do boring math (which was the starting point for Abraham) which takes a lot of time when starting your project.
This software is designed to "hold-your-hand" from start to finish regardless if you're new to layouts
or a professional designer with many years of experience. Truth is that many designers are so busy that
they just don't have time to create the layouts they truly want, leaving many dissatisfied with the end
result or even worse reusing and being "stuck" with old layouts and never developing their layout skills
— all because they lack the time and also in many cases the knowledge. You no longer have to be an
expert to create layouts like one! Grid Calculator Pro Edition not only handles the layouts for you but
starting from version 3.0 it also handles your paragraph and character styles. Creating perfectly
synchronized texts for your layouts is a breeze and takes your text handling to a completely new level.
The plug-in can handle an unlimited number of styles and quickly sort them neatly in group folders in
the different palettes. The plug-in is not required in order to open InDesign documents created
with it (sending files to other InDesign users works perfectly fine, as the plug-in only uses native
settings already existing within InDesign).
The plug-in can also handle multiple masters which means that you can create totally different layouts
in the same document. With all the features of Grid Calculator Pro Edition, it makes the process of
creating layouts both fun and easy. Will you continue to struggle on your own — or will you get
this tool and finally enjoy creating layouts? The plug-in is loved by many designers and also featured
on Lynda.com (video only available for members but printscreen can be seen here). Plug-in was also used for the redesign of renowned magazine, Creative Review.
