Blog
Publishing Silicon is the blog of Silicon Publishing, a company focused on database publishing, online editing, and Adobe InDesign automation.
We offer three products paralleling our three capabilities: Silicon Paginator, Silicon Designer, and Silicon Connector.
We are the world experts at automating Adobe InDesign and Adobe InDesign Server, which we can say with a straight face as we employ some of the engineers most critical to the early evolution of that first-class software product. We are also uniquely capable of automating the Adobe Digital Publishing Suite.
