The tax

AI builds gorgeous layouts now. Getting one into InDesign still means rebuilding it by hand.

Box by box. Font by font. Hours per deliverable, and you pay it every single time. That tax is one of the dumbest costs in design. This kills it.

FAQ

Questions designers actually ask.

What do I upload?
A self-contained .html file — the kind AI tools hand you when they design a report, deck, or one-pager. If it opens in your browser and looks like your design, it's ready to convert.
What do I get back?
A native .idml that opens straight in Adobe InDesign: real text frames, named paragraph and character styles, charts and tables as editable objects, images placed and linked. If your design has images, it arrives as a zip — keep the Links folder next to the .idml. The file also opens in Affinity Publisher.
So it's a converted PDF?
No. There's no PDF anywhere in the chain — idmly builds the InDesign file directly. That's the whole point: frames you can reflow, styles you can restyle, charts you can recolour. A PDF import gives you outlines and regret.
How does the free trial work?
Drop any file. The first two pages convert free — no signup, no card. Open them in InDesign, poke at them, then decide. Files of one or two pages convert whole.
What does the $49 cover?
One payment, lifetime license, unlimited conversions, up to 10 devices. The key lands in your inbox right after checkout — paste it once per browser and it's remembered.
Do I need the fonts?
Yes — same as opening any InDesign document. The converted file asks for the right fonts by name, and we list them after every conversion. Activate them (most live on Google Fonts or Adobe Fonts) and the layout snaps in.
Is my design private?
Yes. Your file is converted and then deleted — no storage, no training, and no AI model ever reads it. The conversion is deterministic engineering, not a model. The site runs no analytics either. Details in the privacy policy.
What if it mangles my design?
Some designs convert perfectly, some need touch-ups — that's exactly what the free trial is for. If a file converts badly, send it to us with one click right from the converter (or email support@idmly.com) and we'll fix what broke — within 14 days of purchase, it's a fix or a refund. Either way the engine gets smarter.
Does Tailwind work? Other CSS frameworks?
Yes — any of them. idmly renders your file in a real browser and reads the computed layout; it never parses your CSS. Tailwind (CDN script or compiled styles), Bootstrap, plain CSS — if Chrome can render it, it converts. Images can be base64 or any https URL; remote images are downloaded into your Links folder, properly linked for InDesign.
