Adobe InDesign Creative Control Suite

Description

Keep page assembly and typography within reach. Place text or graphics, choose selection and drawing tools, group objects and open Find / Change. The command library brings paragraph and character panels, styles, alignment and display controls closer. Document Zoom fits a page or inspects detail; Horizontal Nudge adjusts selected objects according to the document's keyboard increment. Choose whether you are editing text or moving a frame before invoking a command. Place and Export open InDesign's normal dialogs. Layout decisions, text flow and final export checks remain in the application. Adobe InDesign Creative Control Suite provides 28 actions to open or focus the application, run configurable shortcuts, and control frequent tasks from Stream Deck. It works locally and requires no accounts, Adobe credentials, or external services.

Known limitations

• Adobe InDesign must be installed and is not included with the plugin.
• Shortcuts depend on the active keyboard configuration in Adobe InDesign.
• macOS may request Accessibility permission to send shortcuts and focus applications.
• Interface language, the application’s shortcut preset and keyboard layout are separate settings. Translating the interface does not change shortcuts or guarantee native support for every regional setup. Custom shortcuts must match the active preset and your keyboard; after changing layouts, check and recapture them if needed. For character shortcuts with Japanese, Korean or Chinese IMEs, use Latin/ABC input.
• Version 0.3.8 fixes zoom-in on Windows with Spanish keyboards and preserves US keyboard compatibility. Focus the document before turning Document Zoom; press the dial to fit the page to the window.
