Twixl Publisher Builder lets designers easily create an iPad app, based on Adobe InDesign content. It consists of a plug-in for InDesign and a Builder application that allows a user to create a preview in the iPad simulator or create a real app build (depending on the version of the product).

It is the only product of its kind in that it gives designers easy access to publishing on the iPad, all without the need to be familiar with Xcode programming. Actually, in order to create a build of a publication, a designer will never see a single line of code.

It is a demo and not a functional demo. Have a "preview" of you app would be is not to be functional. NOT FREE. Actually is the opposite: VERY EXPENSIVE to be functional

The free version is NOT a demo and is indeed fully functional, as it allows you to create a preview of your app in the iPad simulator, and it also allows you to create "Ad Hoc" builds of your apps that can be installed on the iPad. You need to be registered as an iOS Developer to do this though.
What is not possible with the free version is the option to create App Store builds by yourself. Either this can be done for a fee per app, or you can purchase a (more expensive) license that allows you to create an unlimited number of apps by yourself.

Easy way to independently create iPad apps from InDesign. No fuss. Easy workflow !

You need to be registered as an Apple Developer though, to install the apps on your iPad. Otherwise you can only see the result in the iPad simulator.

Does not save any files. You can see the file at the destination when you try to export again, but not through the Finder. Makes the demo rather useless.

This app should have been listed as a "Demo" and not as "Free." The only way to use it is to pay for it and the minimum price is $3,330.00.

Requirements:
- InDesign CS5/5.5
- Xcode (but will never actually need to use it)
- To be registered as an Apple Developer
