I believe that the OpenType capabilities of CS3 have yet to be released. All the info on ID CS3 available can be found here. But I am interested -- what are some of the features that ID lacks?

@ auricfuzz

Here below all Indesign CS2 OpenType Features:

And here the Features OpenType offers:

OpenType Features

/* Vertex */

It also supports "Caps to small caps" (c2sc) and "case" (case).

You get c2sc combined with Small Caps when you click on "All Small Caps"

"case" is implemented by "All Caps".

Thanks, Arno. I never knew how many features there are. I'd love to see automatic Capital Spacing, for example, so I'm with you now.

I’d love to see automatic Capital Spacing

this can be built into the case feature, which is currently supported as Nick described above.

Oh. I stand corrected. Since my pseudo-obscure mention of a feature didn't work out, I'd love to see contextual petite cap swashes and randomized nukta forms. Is that so much to ask?

Actually, InDesign supports 'cpsp' (capital spacing) and 'case' alternates, both of which are activated by clicking on "all caps" formatting.

InDesign also supports 'kern'. :)

However, everyone who knows the answer to your question about CS3 features is under a nondisclosure agreement with Adobe and can't talk about it yet. In my case, it's part of my employment contract.

Cheers,
