Feature Request: Indesign endnote support

Post by doconnor »

Hi Jon,

After a recent update, Adobe InDesign now supports formatting bibliographies from in-text citations:

Would it be possible to see if this makes it possible for Bookends to work more seamlessly with InDesign? I, along with several colleagues, write proposals and manuscripts collaboratively in Google Docs and then move the documents to InDesign for formatting and graphics integration. Formatting bibliographies previously required exporting stories as Adobe Tagged Text, generating a bibliography, and pasting the bibliography and formatted text back into InDesign. This process didn't work well with words that have accent characters in them or with documents that use Adobe's cross-referencing features, so more elegant support for references would be really helpful.

Thanks,

Dave

It looks like this feature is internal to inDesign. Unless I misunderstand, it's not designed (pun intended) to work with third party applications.
