"Until now, taking a Stories idea from concept to publishing for multiple platforms has been time-intensive and often results in many rounds of revisions and approvals. We're looking forward to seeing how Issuu and InDesign users maximize their new sharing capabilities and improve Story creation and distribution workflows." Issuu's Story Cloud extension for Adobe InDesign has made social Story sharing a quick and seamless process for all users, whether they be creatives, marketers, social media managers or designers at established companies or budding startups. InDesign and Issuu users can now upload their InDesign content directly to the Issuu Story Cloud, which automatically transforms the text and image assets into Story formats adaptable for all social platforms. "Issuu has made creating and sharing beautiful content an easy proess through its extension in Adobe InDesign. We're excited to see Issuu empowering marketers and brands with the ability to publish on any social platform through InDesign," said Anubhav Rohatgi, director of product, Adobe InDesign. Issuu's Story Cloud is comprised of a suite of products that enable brands and creators to transform any type of content (images, animations, articles or ads) into a professional-quality social media Story, share on their favorite social channels and even monetize it. It delivers beautiful spreads and slick scrolls in a variety of formats including online articles, flipbook digital publications, website embeds, GIFS, Instagram Stories and downloadable video stories assets to share on Snapchat Stories, Facebook Stories, Google (News - Alert) AMP Stories, Pinterest, Twitter, WhatsApp, Apple News and more. "Bang & Olufsen has been creating innovative and iconic audiovisual design experiences since 1925, and storytelling is key in connecting people to our brand - there are so many stories that we can tell, almost too many!
