    Who it's for: Curious beginners to advanced creatives working in any industry.
    What it is: A multifaceted content layout program that allows for the creation of posters, brochures, newsletters, books, basic illustration, special effects, and interactivity.
    What you'll learn: We begin with learning the interface and workspace to drawing and manipulating shapes, applying color, and understanding and implementing typography. Then, we get into a fun series of lessons on placing images, editing images, and text wrapping. Next, we do a deep dive into paragraph, character, and object styles. We explore the valuable Master pages, and learn about exporting and packaging our documents for publishing. In our advanced course, we cover data merging and how to create a Table of Contents and interactive form. We also go deeper into nested styles including Character, Paragraph, and Object styles. Finally, we get creating with some of our favorite vector and shape manipulation tools, and explore how to use the Creative Cloud Libraries more effectively to share and utilize all of your new assets and tools.

    This may be the best tutorial for any software I've ever seen. The tone, the pace, the structure, and the technical level are all perfect for the way my brain works. I find Adobe's own instructional materials to be cryptic at best, but this one hits it out of the park. Thanks so much for doing all this work for us.

I agree with the other reviewers - this is the best online tutorial I have ever seen! No contest. The pace, the flow of topics, the practical examples, the expert screen viewing and articulation of what/how to do things... sheer perfection. This is model for online software training instructors. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

    This is an incredibly helpful beginner's guide, thank you so much for taking the time to make it. Gosh, what a labour of love!
    I have a tiny tiny tiny request for future videos, please. In some of the lessons in this video, there is a dark background instead of a white background and this sometimes makes it very difficult for me to follow the cursor, even with my glasses on. However, when the background is white, it's super easy and I don't have to rewind all the time. Again, thank you so much xx

    This is the best tutorial series I've ever viewed. I had several subscriptions to services during the past 25 years, but there always seemed to be some explanations missing. The learnit series takes you logically and orderly from point to point: A, B, C, D, E no missing steps. The other services would be more like: A, B... D, E creating confusion and making you wonder how they got to D? Wasting lots of time, rewinding videos, or searching through community forums. There are no missing steps in this series, and it clearly demonstrates how all the adobe programs are integrated. If you view, one series, you gain a basic understanding of the others: Preferences, Work Spaces, Menus, Customizations and so forth.

    Well I wish I would have had this 15 years ago. I started with Clairis Works in the late 80s when I was working in the publishing/advert field. InDesign seems similar but I had no clue how to transfer knowledge from one to another. Sending stuff to the printer was far more complex with having to set screens for the pages, use postscript fonts and cymk color break downs by vendor.
    I find myself amazed that it appears that much of that hassle has been tucked away. I almost forgot having to send all my images as correct tiffs. Which was a job within a job.
