About J2SCatalog
Can be used to lay out catalogues, property listings for estate agents, directories... i.e. any kind of publication featuring information sharing the same structure (records).

The user first creates a model by laying out the items of a typical information unit (record). J2SCatalog then duplicates this model throughout the document, adding new pages as necessary prior to importing the data from the XML files.

J2SCatalog does not intend to fully automate the creative process of page layout but to deal with the fastidious task of laying out and tagging all items in a document for XML import.

J2SCatalog relies on InDesign CS own XML processing possibilities. Once the document has been generated, the updating process is as simple as using the XML import feature provided by InDesign CS.

J2S will add other processes as they are required by customers. J2SCatalog is a plug-in for the MacOS X version of InDesign CS. A Windows version will be released shortly. J2SCatalog demo version is limited to the first 10 records of the XML file. A more detailed presentation, the user manual and a demo version can be found on J2S web site at http://www.j2s.net.
