About

DesignCraft is an open-source page-layout and publishing application for designers, publishers, and other users creating multi-page documents. It provides spreads and parent pages, text and graphic frames, threaded stories, columns, paragraph and character styles, color swatches, and text wrapping for arranging editorial and print-oriented layouts. Typography tools include paragraph composition, hyphenation, optical margin alignment, and baseline grids. Users can work with a documented native file format, import and export IDML, and export PNG images. The application is available as a native desktop program for Windows, macOS, and Linux, with a WebAssembly build for browser use. Command-line workflows, a JSON control channel, and an MCP server support scripted or agent-driven document operations. DesignCraft is free and open source under MIT or Apache-2.0 licensing. The product is in development.

About

Docling is an easy-to-use, self-contained, MIT-licensed open source toolkit for converting messy documents into structured data and simplifying downstream document and AI processing. It can parse many popular document formats into a unified and richly structured Docling Document, including PDF, DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, HTML, Markdown, AsciiDoc, CSV, images, audio, and scanned pages through an OCR engine of the user’s choice. Docling detects tables, formulas, reading order, chunks, bounding boxes, page headers and footers, pictures, captions, code, list items, paragraphs, cells, and document structure, making extracted content easier to process, search, and ingest into AI, RAG, and agentic systems. It can export parsed documents to JSON, text, Markdown, HTML, and Doctags, giving developers flexible outputs for pipelines and applications. Docling stores and traverses components according to reading order, partitions documents into bite-sized contiguous text chunks.
