Adobe InDesign CS3

By combining extraordinary production power and creative freedom with innovative cross-media support, Adobe InDesign CS3 takes page design and layout to new levels. Its advanced typography controls allow users unprecedented control over text and formatting. And with new advanced features that allow non-destructive effects (such as drop shadow, bevel and emboss), to be added to both text and graphic frames, users will find endless creative design possibilities. In this VTC tutorial, long time author and graphics guru, Brian White, teaches the fundamentals of InDesign before moving on to show professional hands-on document creation and manipulation. From novice to Pro, this course covers it all! Work Files are included. To begin learning today, simply click on one of the movie topics.
