Later, Adobe code-named the project 'K2', and Adobe released InDesign 1.0 in 1999.Īdobe launched InDesign in the United Kingdom through a series of promotional presentations in hotels. Aldus had begun developing a successor to PageMaker, which was code-named 'Shuksan'. Adobe rebuffed Quark's offer and continued to develop a new desktop publishing application. In 1999, Quark announced its offer to buy Adobe and to divest the combined company of PageMaker to avoid problems under United States antitrust law. ( Freehand, Aldus's competitor to Adobe Illustrator, was licensed from Altsys, the maker of Fontographer.) By 1998 PageMaker had lost much of professional market to the comparatively feature-rich QuarkXPress version 3.3, released in 1992, and version 4.0, released in 1996. InDesign is the successor to Adobe PageMaker, which Adobe acquired by buying Aldus Corporation in late 1994.
