    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.

    Hi, I really enjoyed both the beginner course and advanced. The only thing I was hoping to learn was more about accessibility and how to make your designs accessible. As I work for local government all my designs have to be made accessible to users which I seem to be struggling with on how to do. But overall these are the best courses I've done so far you are really engaging!

    Hi there! Really, you top any instructor I've ever had. Thank you for the clear and to the point instructions. I am following along with the files and your instructions. It seems the first file you've opened" Annual_Report_Final_Dc.indd "is not in the provided package. Minor inconvenience, the value you've provided more than makes up for it. Thank you soooooooooooo much

    You can still click and edit content on regular pages that was created on the master page. For example, on the master page A, you created page numbers for 5 pages in black text. You realized that page 5 has a black background and the number 5 is not showing. You can hold "Command+Shift" on Mac click the number 5 on page 5 and highlight it and change the color to white.

    You may have been skipping minutia since it’s an advanced course, but in Layers, the black around the page numbers should have extended in the the bleed areas.
    I agree with those who like your instruction style, but details are important.

    Dave, Thanks for taking the time to make these tutorial videos. They are so helpful. I have learned so much. I would like to ask you about justification. Is there is a best practise when using justification in documents. Should it be fully justified or left justified? I am Proposal Writer and I always get push back from my operations team when I used left justified. I use it as I find fully justified unvevely spaced and makes it tough to read. What would you advise?

    Thank you very much. I wonder if the rainbow or any stroke can be customized. I'm trying to make a triple frame around my page, but I want the three strokes to be certain colors. Surely I don't have to make three rectangular paths and tweak the thickness, color and distance among them all? Thanks.

    I have confusion in LAYERS tutorial and want you to clarify. You put Month and Year in Layers and same becomes visible on all relevant pages.
    Even on those pages where there already exists graphic.
    As far as I know that all the Master Page elements become invisible if we put any graphic in child page. So How did you achieve this.
    Did you use multiple Masters pages?
    Please clarify.

    I'm looking to create a pictorial directory in Indesign ... but one that could be easily edited ... for example. If I've laid out the book and placed all the pictures and names below the pictures ... BUT now I need to add someone in the C's ... is there a way for me to easily shift all the people's pictures & names over one and insert the new person without having to Manually move everyone else behind where I want to insert someone??? I'm thinking surely their would be? But I'm not sure how ... I've worked with Indesign for 20 years but have never heard of doing something like this. (I'm also self taught and only know what I've learned and figured out myself ... so there's that! HA) Any help would be appreciated!!

    Thanks a lot for the training. Although I consider myself pretty intermediate, I learned a lot from you.
    Just a heads up though, something that happened to me twice during your "nested object styles" section.
    If you happen to have some kind of character style chosen, while making an object style, weird things may occur.
    So one must make sure character style is set to "none" when making object style to avoid surprises.
    Looking forward to more advance trainings from you.

    I use Indesign 2020 because it says that it provides Myanmar Unicode System.
    The Myanmar font displayed right in sentences where Myanmar words are mixed with Korean and Chinese languages.
    But when the sentence contained Arabic (the MiddleEast Language), the Myanmar font was messed up and didn't display in the correct order.
    I would like to know why it keeps happening, what the error is and what I can do to make it right again? Thank you.
