By Patricia Ackerman

Very clear presentation; perfect pace for beginning to work with Indesign

By Scott McCorkell

Short but concise videos filled with useful important information. Anything you need to know about inDesign is covered in this course. Very well organised and put together and the teacher responds to queries incredibly quickly which is great when you are stuck

By Ed Navarro

Pretty solid beginner's guide to InDesign and it was easy to follow. I purchased the course to learn the layout of the program, being an avid Photoshop and Illustrator user, hoping these basics help me out for my job interview.

By Giancarlo Piccolo

Excelente explicando, pero siento que faltaron un par de herramientas.

By Robert F. Powers

Covered a good number of things I didn't already know, but didn't address working on digital books (epub, mobi, etc). Didn't talk about RGB.

By Keith James

too much on color swatches
