The IDMLlib or IDML Library enables you to quickly access content from Adobe® InDesign® IDML Files. If you work on a desktop plugin or with InDesign® Server you do not want to miss the power of the InDesign® Markup Language (IDML).

With the IDMLlib we bring the power to work with InDesign® documents to the Java™ community. We will save you a ton of time trying to unravel the IDML format.

Plus you do not want to miss some of our 'comfort' functions dealing with InDesign® specific quirks.

• IDML Java™ objectmodel with over 800 classes
• Automatic type conversion from XML to Java™
• Special classes for all IDML elements
• Lazy loading mechanism, loads only what you need
• Based on Java™, can be used with Groovy scripting to have shell like scripts
• Full access to all IDML elements (text, images, geometry)
• No XML knowledge required

Just some ideas you can do with the IDMLlib

• Central custom preflight for InDesign® documents
• Prepare InDesign® documents for InDesign® Server
• Extract content from InDesign® documents to publish it on websites
  and mobile devices
• Check and compare InDesign® documents for your own
  quality assurance workflow
• Create you own translation environments and workflows
• Check image usages and against your central DAM system
• Transfer InDesign® data into a database

Watch this introductory video to give you an idea about how easy it is to include the IDMLlib into your project.

If you want to testdrive the IDMLlib for Java, use our contact form to get a time limited trial version.

After that we invite you to join our development program for an annual fee. We provide you with all the information and tools you need. You get access to our IDMLlib portal, pre releases (Milestones) and access to our roadmap.

Please check the Overview page for licences. Right now we offer Developer, Desktop and Server licences. So depending on what you want to do with the IDMLlib you need to buy either one for you or your customer.
