Synopsis

This latest entry in the In Easy Steps series is written for both beginners and for those who know earlier versions of InDesign or other DTP software but want to grasp the features quickly. Author Robert Shufflebotham starts with the basics and then builds from them to cover the more extensive range of functionality the new software has to offer. By following the book's logical structure, readers can develop the core skills needed to master the program. Shufflebotham clearly explains the fundamentals of page layout, creating a platform on which to build new skills. Then he explores InDesign's comprehensive typesetting capabilities such as color; text editing; paragraph, character, and objects styles; master pages; and document construction and layers. Later chapters deal with tables of contents and indexes, the book palette, InDesign's industrial-strength print, PDF export and XML capabilities, together with InDesign's powerful table functionality, and its sophisticated Bezier curve functionality.
