Intermediate InDesign CC
Intermediate InDesign CC
If you’ve ever struggled to complete a project in InDesign, or wondered how to save time and increase efficiency in your work, this is the course for you! You’ll get hands-on training and experience using many of the more advanced tools and features of this powerful program. While the course focuses on using InDesign in the Creative Cloud (CC), it includes instruction and practice files for any version of InDesign CS4 or later.
In each lesson, you’ll master important features as you prepare a range of print and online products for a fictional resort and conference center. You’ll get dozens of files to work with, including templates and partially completed InDesign documents to start each lesson, and the graphics, fonts, and other content to complete the project. Many lessons include advanced content, such as techniques for managing snippets, swatch files, and color. For reference, you’ll always get a copy of the finished InDesign project file—usable in InDesign CS4 and newer.
Lesson by lesson, you’ll discover how to use program features to produce professional brochures, forms, and documents, and produce publications for different page sizes and devices. By the time you finish the course, you’ll not only be comfortable designing and planning your own workflows and templates, you’ll also know the most efficient and effective ways to take your InDesign publications to the next level.
