Adobe InDesign – Introduction [1012]

Adobe's InDesign is professional software to create adverts, brochures, catalogs, price lists, data sheets, labels, business cards and much, much more.

This course allows you to get to know and use the opportunities that Adobe InDesign offers: First of all you get an overview of the program, the tools and the palettes. And then we get down to practical stuff: You create your own first advert, a page in a brochure, a catalog page, and much more. In so doing, you learn how to use the professional typography (lettering) and design possibilities in Adobe InDesign for your work.

Of course we take a look outside the box:

• What happens to my file next? (color printing, proofing, color separation and lighting, production printing and further processing)
• How do I create a printable PDF file?
• What do I do if I am faced with extensive changes?

This gives you the added benefit of keeping an eye on the printing process even before you start your layout work. And that saves you a lot of surprises.
