“PDF2DTP” for InDesign opens up completely new horizons for publishing. For the first time it is possible to convert PDF documents to editable InDesign documents – completely reliable and extremely fast. It does not matter where those PDF documents come from. Use it as a tool to import and convert PDFs originating in Word, XPress or even Websites!

PDF2DTP for InDesign is a plug-in for Adobe InDesign. The yearly subscription gives you continuous access to all new versions during the course of your subscription.

Never before it was that simple to use PDF as a source to create a fully editable new publishing document. In your creative workflow, you now can just import any PDF and instantly create a new original InDesign document. It is much more comfortable to edit an InDesign document, get rid of some errors, than output to PDF again, as using a PDF editing tool.

When converting a PDF file, the plug-in generates a job folder. Images from the PDF-file are extracted and saved into that job folder, together with the newly created InDesign document. It feels like simply opening a native InDesign file. It’s that simple and intuitive! Color-definitions are copied, texts can be edited, etc.

PDF2DTP for InDesign also is a great help if the original files are no longer available, to create new originals from a PDF. If you need to get a proper publishing document where the customer delivers a Word file, just export the Word file to PDF, then use this plug-in to convert it to a regular InDesign document.
