Layer Groups 1.0
Layer Groups name well describes the plug-ins main feature - the possibility to sort layers into folders. Now users can utilize the layers in InDesign freely without the risk of getting lost in them.

The second feature enables user to set the non-printing to an entire layer - a feature users are used to having in other applications. Non-printing was previously an option only available on object level basis. Users can now with a single click include an easily manageable layer for comments or alternate layout/design objects without the risk of having them print.


X-ray 1.0
X-ray is a productivity tools for designers using many InDesign panels at the same time. With X-ray, specific opacity can be assigned to all the panels and toolbars.

Than the designer can see actual layout through the tools. $19 for X-ray is a cheaper alternative to buying second screen and a dual screen graphic card in order to use all the tools and still see the design.


History 1.0 for InDesign/InCopy CS
DTP Tools History plug–in brings the extra useful panel to InDesign, with added and improved features.

Apart from seeing all available redo and undo steps, you can also take snapshots.

Snapshots don't just work as bookmarks in the list, they also allow you to revert to states out of the list range or otherwise obsolete.


Text Count 1.1 for InDesign/InCopy CS
Text Count provides quick and easy control over word counts, oversets and space assigning in InDesign or InCopy documents.

Counts eight different text items in a wide selection of ranges.

Text Count info panel shows real time count and estimate results and offers user three new functions for managing overset text.

Forget about dummy text and copy pasting to text processors to get your estimates and word count done. Text Count estimates the number of text elements in empty frames using styles set in frame and document language average values. This helps you to adjust the size of frames to fit desired word count and makes space and copy assigning more efficient.

You can use it either in the form of a panel showing you real time count and estimate results, or in comprehensive reports showing you all the desired data in a well-arranged separate document, ready to pass on to your accounting department for freelance payments.

Unlike InDesign's built in text info panel, Text Count shows you counts always, not just when text tool is selected and it counts four more elements. As the only plug-in on the market Text Count performs the estimates and price calculations too. Overset control tools will dramatically improve your production process.
