What our customer's say!

"Adobe InDesign CS2 Bible", I bought this as a present for my daughter who is majoring in
Graphic Design. SHE WAS SO THRILLED!

"In-depth reference for Print Output", This book had the most in-depth reference for output, which is the information I was looking for. Other books that are in the market are gear toward chapter by chapter 'training', and does not cover this information extensively like the Bible does. The Bible explains print output for your printer as well as for commercial printing, basic and advance output set up with explanation of what each set up do and what to do to get the results you want. This is a great reference for design/print professionals who are new to the field as well as experts.

"One more amazing Bible - reference that you can't miss (Adobe InDesign CS3)", With no exception this book is other great and complete InDesign (CS3) reference from Galen Gruman and Wiley Publishing.

For whom is this book? Really, for very wide auditory of InDesign users. I can recommend this books to people who consider themselves as beginners or advanced users of this program. This books will be also helpful to any designer making the switch from QuarkXpress to InDesign. Using the side-by-side comparison of features is much faster than trying to find the answers online, because in order to look up how to do something, you have to know what it's called in InDesign. With this book, you don't.

In fact, Bibles are the most convenient form of explaining of what software does that I've ever seen.
You have all information under your hand in any time of night and day. And users of Microsoft Vista will be very exited as book stays up-to-date. Book is written as for Windows users, as for Macintosh ones.

This Bible will sit next to you all day long. You can read it front to back and use it as a reference during your projects. And this book is worth it if you have or plan to purchase CS3, upgrade to CS3 or want to know more about InDesign CS3.

This book represents an excellent value. You will find anything you wanna in this book: starting from creating frames and using tables, applying color, special effects, working with images, master pages, using grids, and guides, shapes up to small color management course and output fundamentals.

If you just started with InDesign, most likely you not familiar with such terms as "leading", "kerning", "bleeds", "slugs" or other typographical terms mean, but you won't be lost in the jargon any longer. This book will bring you on right level with fine explanations.

End of the book represents summary of what we found out in whole book. Or from other hand maybe it's exactly the place to start read this book for people who just switched from QuarkXPress or PageMaker to InDesign. You can also in once to remember the most usable short cuts that will save you a plenty of time in future (in real there is 10 pages of short cuts but just start from couple and in time you will remember them all).

The most easy way to study yourself smth - just to start. Make some fake project for yourself and how to make it - this book will tell you. And i'm sure that after a couple of projects you will feel yourself almost a pro in InDesign CS3 (previous and versions that will follow, because main part of using program you will already know as 2x2).

I advice you also to pay attention to end of book to chapter number VIII and IX. If you familiar a bit with programming you will see the true value in chapter number X.

So, if you searching for good InDesign CS3 reference, put your finger on this Bible.


P.S. - If you just came from QuarkXpress, i would also recommend you other book of Galen Gruman "QuarkXPress to InDesign: Face to Face"

"Far worth every penny and more - tremendous resource", I knew very little about Indesign CS3 when I purchased this book. Easy to read, extremely well-organized and cross-referenced, this in-depth book gave me everything I need to take a document from "File-Open" to Printing production. The author writes in a clear and, surprisingly, engaging style (because long books about computer programs often work better than Narcotics to help you fall asleep). I learned priceless secrets as well as indispensable basics - I will read it again and again to pick up on more and more good, solid material that will continue to help me grow as a desktop publisher. I recommend this book without reservation!

"overall pretty good", This book has been a pretty good help to me. It helped me learn the program even before I got a copy of it. It is set up for just about any level of experience with the program and is organized into labeled chapters so you can skip any content that you already know or will never use (which may happen a lot if you are not a completely serious publisher). But I think this is a good help for me and I plan to keep it and use for future references with the program.

"A Compehensive Reference", After ten years of buying and using computer books, I find that a book usually falls into one of two categories: 1. Hands-on Tutorial or 2. Comprehensive Reference. InDesign Bible falls into the later category, providing an excellent reference that is amply illustrated with both Mac and PC screen shots. There are even a few glossy color pages present entitled "Color Techniques." Unlike the "hands-on" type of books that are helpful for the duration of its lessons, InDesign Bible is a "reference" book that has stayed close to my computer for several months. Actually, each type of book has its merits and can compliment each other. For me, Indesign Bible has been a great companion to Abobe's InDesign Classroom in a Book. I highly recommend both titles.

"Indesign Bible too meny pages of text", After reading through the first 500 or so pages I could not bear to read another page. Too much like a reference book with no hands on teaching. I thought the cd that came with it would be like the rest of the adobe books I read with lessons that have text and photos which could be applied to training course chapters. Instead I got what indesign could do if you had text and photo's on it.
For someone that likes to read through 1000 and some odd pages to get head knowledge and no hands on experience this is your type of book, but not mine.

"Another Bible book , Another perfect work...", When I see this book in my local bookstore I bought it because it was a Bible. I came back to in front of my computer and start reading. Finally I can say this : "PERFECT!" It is my 4th Bible series book. If you want a Quark Killer- a new type approach to desktop publishing and if you think Adobe is the best graphics software developer in the world aaannd you didnt buy a indesign book yet , BUY this one. I can suggest this book to all level users. Thanks Adobe and thanks IDG.

"Nice, but...", I have read many "Bible" type books and this one is not one of the best. I was disappointed after reading the book. It explains the nuts and bolts of InDesign but the same information is in the Adobe manual that comes with the software. The InDesign Bible is comprehensive and covers a lot of information with regard to desk-top publishing, therefore I would recommend this book to novices or newcomers to the field of publishing and print layout. It also only covers version 1 of InDesign and version 1.5 has just been announced to be shipping mid to late April.

If you are new to publishing and just starting out with InDesign this book could be helpful. However the Adobe InDesign manual contains much of the same material and printed on better paper.
