Articles that are HTML-based can be another source for content for your Adobe Digital Publishing Suite app. These files can be imported into a folio, can contain interactivity not available in the Overlays panel, and can offer a much smaller file size. Using HTML-based articles lends itself to weekly publications and text-heavy articles.

HTML text imageThere are specific requirements for folder structure, handling of page orientations, and files intended for different devices, so incorporating HTML into your workflow will require some additional planning.

See Adobe’s Creating HTML Articles for DPS page for additional information on using HTML articles in a DPS app.
