Caspian Kidd on InDesign CS6:
Another new feature is the ability to insert HTML content as objects into a page layout. This means more options for making iPad folio documents or EPUB books, but not so much for print work. Exporting to PDF with HTML items in a layout created black boxes in our tests, even with simple text. It also didn’t let us put more than one portion of HTML into a document at once: every HTML item ended up with the same content.
