What our customer's say!

"Adobe InDesign CS3", Item received before expected due date. Installed and used for classroom lessons and activities in a Desktop Publishing class. Very useful with great examples and activities.

"Project due in two weeks and I don't know the software!", Adobe InDesign CS2 Classroom in a Book saved my career! Coming from an MS Word environment, I was Adobe-resistant, but I had a book to get publisher ready so, in one week, with the help of this book, I learned to love InDesign by zipping through this book and the included CD ROM tutorial. Well worth the price. This is an excellent training manual.

"Simple, Direct, Easy to Understand", I have used these handbooks before, and they are the simplest to understand. I manage creatives and really don't know how to use the CS2 programs, but even I can pick up this book and create files with no experience. It is a great reference in helping to get my designers away from Quark and into InDesign.

"Good book but not a reference book", I bought this book and yes, it is a good book but it is not the reference book that I was looking for. I need to be able to look up how to do a particular application or what a certain button does. I have to figure out which lesson this might be found in and then go through to the lesson. This is time consuming and I do not always find the information I need. I am really looking for a great index with step by step on how to perform certain funtions.

"Love it", I was just starting to learn InDesign and had not taken any classes. This book was great. It really helped me through many projects. A definite plus to your library if your are an InDesign user.

"Adobe Indesign CS2 Classroom in a book.", Most of the time, if you follow the steps, things will go OK.

"Great help", I'm pretty much self-taught when it comes to using Adobe's CS2 products. I've taken a few classes, but mostly I just figure things out as I go along. These "Classroom in a Book" products have been a great help.

"A good book to learn on", I've had to learn InDesign for a couple freelance projects, and I felt this book was concise and a wonderful reference guide. The fact it is not just drowning in text on each page (ahem...Peachpit Press) made it easier to skim and find what you need in a short amount of time.

Any criticism I'd have to give is there isn't much for more complex/advanced tips, but it is perfect for a beginner.

"Very useful and user friendly", The Classroom in a Book for Adobe InDesign.cs2 was well organized and easy to use.

I found the info on printer profiles lacking in more detailed information about the individual profiles and their results under various circumstances. I still do not know whether to let InDesign Determine Colors or PostScript Printer Determines Color.

I liked the glyphs, but do not have access to them when I am using InDesign for my own documents.

I miss having a Keyboard Shortcuts for InDesign cardstock trifold like PageMaker. Keyboard shortcuts are not published in the Classroom in a Book. PageMaker shortcuts are not all relevant to InDesign.

The index could include useful terms.

"New full color edition is a great way to learn", I have been learning Adobe's applications via their Classroom In A Book series. I find there is just nothing better out there. After all it is the official training program from Adobe written by Adobe experts - what else is there to say! The book itself is made of quality paper and is beautifully layed out. They give text and graphics ample space on each page, nothing is cramped and everything is arranged in a logical order. The instructions are precise and given in small enough steps with lots of graphics and pictures along the way so you won't get lost. In fact, each chapter is easy and interesting to follow and it helps that the projects are beautifully designed layouts. You'll create magazine pages, newsletter pages, a restaurant menu, a CD insert etc. that you look forward to finish and that will leave you inspired. Some chapters encourage you to also "Explore On Your Own" and each chapter features a review and answers section to test your aquired knowledge. Maybe you have to revisit some of the earlier chapters because you may have forgotten some details once you've been plugging away for a while, but that simply speaks for the volume you will have to absorb since InDesign is afterall a complex application. Having said that, everybody should feel very confident to use and further explore InDesign upon completion of the book. It includes a CD with 15 lessons and Quicktime tutorial movies.

If you have been sceptical to learn by yourself, this book will make it easy!
