30-Page Catalog Rabbit Hole

I am about to be all in on ye olde 30-page full-color catalog. Thus, instead of doing it manually as I did in days of yore... I figured out how to import our products into InDesign via XML file and am going to make a sample for our developer before sitting back and drinking a Piña Colada as the catalog builds itself.

Just kidding! I still have to build the catalog however what I won't have to do is copy everything by hand, check thousands of prices, apply paragraph/character styles.

Check out this blog post to try it for yourself --> https://spin.atomicobject.com/2017/04/25/dynamic-indesign-templates-xml-data/.
