Grid Generator
SUMMARY »
During the process of putting my portfolio together, I became frustrated that so much time on book projects is spent developing a grid system where all aspects – baseline, module, text block, and page format – are directly proportional to one another. Realising this, I decided to develop a tool that would accomplish this task for me. Programmed using the Python programming language, and making use of the Drawbot interpreter created by Just van Rossum, Grid Generator outputs a string of information that can be used to create proportional grid systems and page formats in InDesign.
I am currently developing it further to add various functionality and (hopefully) transfer it to its own Mac OS X Cocoa application.
