Simple. Powerful. Universal.

PubCoder supports incredible features to make it easy and fast to work on your content. Discover what you can do.

layout / text

Fine-tuned Typography

Edit complex text with styles directly in your layout, using whatever font you like: PubCoder supports TrueType, OpenType and WOFF fonts out of the box. And with our in-app Google Fonts browser you can choose and import the right font for your project in a matter of seconds.

interactivity

Interactivity. Unleashed

Detect all sorts of clicks and touch gestures on your objects or custom interactive areas and bring your content to life with animations, videos and sounds: every layout object can be animated without writing a single line of code or knowing how to use a timeline. PubCoder makes it easy to build complex animations using its intuitive graphical user interface - just like in Keynote, PowerPoint or similar presentation software.

LAYOUT/IMAGES

Graphic Powerhouse

Images are at the core of digital publishing, and PubCoder makes it easy to use both bitmap and vector images in all your favorite formats, including PNG, JPEG, SVG and Adobe Photoshop PSD files also, handling format conversions and size optimizations automatically, while enabling you to work with your original files and your favourite editors. Just double-click your image in your PubCoder file to edit in Photoshop, Illustrator, Affinity or whatever editor of choice and see the changes live in your PubCoder layout. Missing the right image or icon for the job? Just search for it on Unsplash and The Noun Project without ever leaving PubCoder.

Import your InDesign files

Already have an InDesign file with your layout? You can import and convert it into a PubCoder project file: your text and layouts will be imported exactly as they appear in InDesign, together with your linked assets. Every object in your InDesign project will be an autonomous object in PubCoder, so you will be able to add animations and interactivity with ease.
