Importing your data

The first stage in the process, importing your data is the most critical and key area when using EasyCatalog

By directly importing your data into InDesign, you eliminate re-keying errors and significantly reduce the amount of time required to produce your publication.

The quality of your source data has a direct impact on the quality of the results that can be achieved using EasyCatalog.

Once your data has been imported, it is shown in a spreadsheet-style panel that sits alongside your other InDesign panels. Multiple EasyCatalog panels can be open at any time, allowing you to work on publications that use data from multiple sources.
