 | I received a file from someone which apparently is in PAO, Indesign format, the filename being *.indd
Some years ago they sent me a file which I managed to read in a Quark demo reader. I wonder if there is a similar reader for these Indesign files which I could use as a one off solution for this particular file? I understand that Indesign is an Adobe product and I've been looking on their site, but I cannot find anything like a free reader.
Thanks for any pointers. Menno

Look for an InDesign "Tryout", which is a time-limited demo version. Or ask whoever sent it to you to give you a PDF instead.

John, Great advice, thanks. This just does the trick. I will probably never use it again after this one file. I didn't see the indication Tryout on the site, as I was looking for something like Demo. Cheers Menno
