Free Adobe InDesign File Preview App: Feature-Rich ID Util for macOS
ID Util for macOS is one of Markzware’s Freebies for Adobe InDesign file users. It is a stand-alone app that can enable you to preview and export InDesign content, plus more.
How to Use ID Util (free Adobe InDesign file preview app):
• Install Markzware’s ID Util for macOS.
• Select the InDesign, IDML, or InCopy file in Finder.
• To preview the selected file, click the spacebar. (For thumbnail-sized previews, view your files in thumbnail view. To see more detail, zoom in. To see multiple pages at once, zoom out.)
Many users receive or have InDesign files on their system, but can’t view those files without Adobe’s InDesign program. ID Util for macOS has the functionality to display previews for a range of Adobe InDesign file formats.
“You can click a Show button to open the folder containing the image in a Finder window. Similarly, the Fonts tab lists the fonts used in the InDesign file, their status, and an option to reveal the fonts in the Finder, as well as a preview of a selected font at the bottom of the window.”
