    Currently I am using adobe InDesign CS5. But it is very difficult to create digital magazine layout using InDesign. I have tried many times to design a layout but again and again I become fail. I could not connect with Fholiobuilder Panel. When I try to connect it show "[svr.unknown]".

    Is there any alternative way to create digital Magazine Or can I create digital magazine layout by Adobe inDesign without using Fholiobuilder? If you have any information, please help me.

    I would suggest just continuing to use it and watch tutorials on how to use it. The industry standard is InDesign and it isn't really worth your time to learn a copycat software, in my opinion.

    That being said, if this is merely for your own projects and not for trying to get a job, using anything you like is probably fine. If you are trying to be a graphic designer though, and getting actual paid jobs, it would be much wiser to learn InDesign as that's what they'll expect you to know if you claim to be a designer.
