Adobe Indesign 2020 -

Adobe InDesign 2020 (version 15.x) was a significant update that pivoted heavily toward streamlining collaborative workflows. Released in late 2019, it introduced "Share for Review" as its headline feature, allowing designers to get real-time feedback without stakeholders needing the software or a PDF export. Key Features & Updates

Key Features & Improvements

1. Cloud-Based Collaboration

• Share for Review: Users can share documents directly from within InDesign without creating a PDF. Collaborators can add comments and annotations via a web browser, streamlining the feedback loop.
• Auto-Save & Version History: Cloud documents automatically save changes and allow users to revert to previous versions.

• Lack of real collaboration tools — Unlike Google Docs or Figma, multiple users still couldn’t work on the same InDesign file simultaneously (Cloud documents would arrive later in 2021).
• No significant UI refresh — The interface remained nearly identical to 2015’s version, which felt dated to some.
• Minor bugs at launch — Early adopters reported issues with missing links when packaging files, fixed in the 15.0.1 patch.
