Here's the scenario: I would like to write one batch of content to be used on both my website and PDF portfolio. I have the content written, images collected, and 2 masters done in InDesign. This is a sample of the XML
I could have several <Piece>s for one company (ranging 2-5). Since I designed for 1 piece/page, I'd like to have the new pages added in automatically.
To that end, I was going around Adobe's forums to see if there were any special tags I'd need to use and it seems that Adobe has their own DTD for InDesign at http://ns.adobe.com/AdobeInDesign/3.0/ (you will get a 404, so it's not linked). In my research there, I found that there are a couple of tags that handle line breaks and tabs - <aid:br/> and <aid:tab/>. However, there appears to be no documentation on those, or any other tags in the DTD. Google and Yahoo show nothing, and neither does Usenet.
Given that, I think I have a couple of questions:
First, am I doing this in a good way to start out with? If not, I'm completely open to suggestions.
Second, does anyone here know of the documentation on those tags?
Thanks guys,
Michael
