Adobe InDesign CS3
Item received before expected due date. Installed and used for classroom lessons and activities in a Desktop Publishing class. Very useful with great examples and activities.
Project due in two weeks and I don't know the software!
Adobe InDesign CS2 Classroom in a Book saved my career! Coming from an MS Word environment, I was Adobe-resistant, but I had a book to get publisher ready so, in one week, with the help of this book, I learned to love InDesign by zipping through this book and the included CD ROM tutorial. Well worth the price. This is an excellent training manual.
Simple, Direct, Easy to Understand
I have used these handbooks before, and they are the simplest to understand. I manage creatives and really don't know how to use the CS2 programs, but even I can pick up this book and create files with no experience. It is a great reference in helping to get my designers away from Quark and into InDesign.
Good book but not a reference book
I bought this book and yes, it is a good book but it is not the reference book that I was looking for. I need to be able to look up how to do a particular application or what a certain button does. I have to figure out which lesson this might be found in and then go through to the lesson. This is time consuming and I do not always find the information I need. I am really looking for a great index with step by step on how to perform certain funtions.
Love it
I was just starting to learn InDesign and had not taken any classes. This book was great. It really helped me through many projects. A definite plus to your library if your are an InDesign user.
