Adobe Slate, a new and free app for Apple’s iOS mobile operating system, helps iPad users turn words and images into a story and publish the story online as beautifully laid-out web content. This is a high-impact visual storytelling app that can be used on Apple’s iPad to lay out, design, and publish web content.

Earlier this week, Adobe released another app for Apple’s iPad: Adobe Comp CC. Designers can use it on their iPads to come up with layout concepts for mobile, web and print projects.

“In today’s digital world, everyone wants to share engaging Web-based stories that stand out, but often people don’t have the right tools to easily create something impactful. With our move to Creative Cloud we’re able to tap into our pro-level creative software expertise and bring it to a much wider audience with new tools—first with Adobe Voice and now Slate. Stay tuned for more innovation like this from our teams at Adobe,” commented Paul Gubbay, vice president of product development, Adobe
