Adobe lets anyone create their own iPad magazine

Instead of just drooling over gorgeous iPad magazines, you can now create your own.

Adobe today announced Adobe Digital Publishing Suite, Single Edition, which will grant tablet publishing capabilities to just about anyone for $395 per magazine app.

The software is aimed at freelancers, small businesses, and others who want to get their work on tablets easily. Single Edition relies on existing Adobe software: You need InDesign CS5.5 to create page layouts and Folio Producer to add sexy interactive elements, like 360 rotation, panoramas, and other media.

Once you have a completed publication, you need to purchase Single Edition at Adobe.com to publish the app to the iTunes App Store. True to its name, you’ll need to purchase a new Single Edition for every app you want to publish.

Adobe says that Single Edition will soon be available, and you’ll be able to publish iPad tablet apps by the end of the year. The company is working on support for Android tablets and the BlackBerry PlayBook (seriously) for 2012. For those who need to create multiple tablet apps, Adobe also announced the pro version of its Digital Publishing Suite, which will cost $495 a month.
