For More InformationNote that we have no intention of this book covering every feature in InDesign. Sure, we cover a lot of ground, and we take an in-depth look at some areas that often cause confusion with users. But we expect that you'll use this book in conjunction with other resources on InDesign. For example, we don't cover how to script InDesign or import/export XML. Fortunately, there are other resources out there. Here's a few places you can go for more information.Real World Adobe InDesign CS2. While we are a bit biased (this book was written by David Blatner and our friend Olav Martin Kvern), this is also the book recommended by members of the InDesign development team at Adobe.Adobe InDesign CS2 Visual QuickStart Guide. Sandee Cohen offers a wonderful step-by-step introduction to InDesign. We tend to like this better than the Adobe InDesign Classroom in a Book, though that one is good, too.Adobe InDesign Web Site. Most corporate Web sites are filled with marketing materials. You'll find plenty of that at Adobe, but it's alongside excellent useful information, too. It's definitely worth a trip to www.adobe.com/products/indesign. Also, the answers to many of your most puzzling InDesign questions can often be answered by the knowledgeable and helpful volunteers in the InDesign User to User Forums at www.adobe.com/support/forums/mai75InDesign Magazine. There's only one magazine in the English language that focuses solely on InDesign issues. Creativepro.com, in conjunction with our own David Blatner, launched InDesign Magazine in July, 2004. The PDF-based magazine is packed with in-depth features, reviews, and tutorials. You can find more information at www.indesignmag.comInDesign Users Groups. At the time of this writing, there are InDesign Users Groups in San Francisco, Seattle, Chicago, Atlanta, Portland, Reno, Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Boston, Tampa, Washington, DC, New York City, and Melbourne, Australia; we expect more soon. See www.indesignusergroup.com to see if you've got one near you. |
