  Efficiently create and design multiple versions of a layout for different devices and print needs, all within a single InDesign file.
• Linked content
  Link content within or across InDesign documents, so that changes (including interactivity) made to the parent text or object are applied to all linked children objects.

  Grab text and objects from an existing layout using the content collector. In a layout, use the content placer to add items in the order you want them to appear.
