A Designers Guide to InDesign and XML is an introduction to XML tagging and how
it works. The technology is broken down into its essential parts, explaining
what XML is and how it works in plain English.

XML is a markup language, a close cousin to HTML. While HTML is used to format
text for display, XML is used to tag or identify data. By “marking up” the data
users can then transfer or repurpose it from one application to another. This
ability to repurpose is XML’s key advantage over most other technologies. And,
because XML was built for the Web, it offers the promise of moving data from
print to the Internet and back again with the push of a button.

The guide includes 10 real world projects with an aim toward users working with
increasing confidence and skill to incorporate XML into their daily workflow.
The projects include:

* Business card: How to create a structured layout in InDesign and import
XML. Get text to format automatically and then flow into multiple
examples.
* Product catalog: Learn how to import XML data into a structured layout
using nested styles and cloned text.
* Magazine and newspaper: Tag and export magazine-style publications for Web
distribution.
* SML and XSL: Transform XML into XHTML for use on the Web in Dreamweaver
and GoLive.
* XML and CSS: Use Cascading Style Sheets with your exported XML.
