This is the basis of automating this task not having to download a bunch of folders each time revisions are made makes everything much easier. At the time I'm posting this, you can find both Windows and Mac versions of the program at this link: Google Drive has a desktop app for both Windows and Mac that will automatically sync the folders you select from Drive to an offline folder on your computer. indd files in your synced Drive folder to populate an InDesign Book (.indb)Ĭontributors upload their layouts to the Drive throughout the design processĮxport PDF to book as contributors update their. Have contributors use a master InDesign file (.indd) template to create layouts Sync your computer to a master Google Drive folder using the Drive desktop app This workflow uses separate InDesign files from multiple users, automatically updates them using the Google Drive desktop app, and utilizes the InDesign Book file type to create a live-updating book file with little to no work required by the organizer once the files are set up. This meant I needed to figure out a workflow that would facilitate quickly responding to Mitch's feedback, and easily incorporating revisions from all 12 of us that were regularly working on our projects. The book needed to be a working document that would be produced concurrently with the work of the studio. As the studio progressed, I led the charge for producing a publication that would pull together all 12 of our projects so we could disseminate the work to the Detroit residents with whom we had been in contact. This past semester at Michigan (Taubman College of Architecture + Urban Planning), professor Mitch McEwen taught a studio called "99 Houses" sited in Detroit. Programs required: Adobe InDesign, Google Drive desktop app
