Released 2005

Adobe InDesign is desktop publishing software. In order to maintain compatibility between versions, InDesign can export into the InDesign Interchange (INX) format.[1][2]

File Information

INX files are in the XML file format. Created for InDesign CS2[3] and replaced in CS4 with IDML.

Specifications

The first line of an INX file is a standard XML declaration that looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
The next line is an INX-specific processing instruction. It contains information required by InDesign to properly configure the import process. Here is an example:
<?aid style=”33” type="document" DOMVersion="4.0" buildNumber=”225 featureSet="257"?>
