Case Study: Larcier Group achieves 60% faster publishing and streamlined legal content delivery with Adobe InDesign

Larcier Group, automating legal and Professional Publishing

Larcier Group, a Brussels–based legal publisher with roots back to 1839, faced the constant challenge of rapidly producing up-to-date, bilingual legal content—hundreds of thousands of items each month—while maintaining a century-old publishing tradition and keeping costs low. To meet these needs the company relied on vendor Adobe InDesign and its technical publishing toolset, using Adobe FrameMaker to drive structured, XML-based workflows and generate print and web-ready outputs.

Working with Adobe InDesign’s solutions, Larcier Group used Adobe FrameMaker to convert XML data into final page layouts, integrate with its content management system and scripting tools, and automate repetitive tasks. The result: publishing cycles accelerated by up to 60%, reduced manual checking, expanded title output and bilingual coverage, and a more cost-effective, scalable process that kept legal professionals supplied with current laws, codes, and directories.
