The phrase refers to the act of acquiring Adobe InDesign, a professional desktop publishing and page layout software, through a torrent network. This method often involves downloading a potentially unauthorized copy of the software via a peer-to-peer file sharing system. Such downloads frequently bypass standard licensing and payment procedures established by the software developer.
This approach to software acquisition is associated with several risks and drawbacks. These include the potential for malware infection, lack of software updates and technical support, and legal ramifications due to copyright infringement. Moreover, using unofficial software versions can lead to instability and functionality issues within the program itself.
