Adobe InDesign CC: A Complete Course and Compendium of Features (Course and Compendium, 1)

This is such a great book to start learning your way around InDesign. I would classify myself as a very green beginner and have found this book to be extremely clear and easy to use. Seems very comprehensive. It works very well to move back and forth between the exercises and the longer detailed explanations of how to use the various features. Highly recommend.

Great for beginners, but not complete beginners. Take a class in parallel and enjoy this book explanations. It will be easier for you and clearer. InDesign I'd a great software to make beautiful magazine layouts, add pictures from PSD and illustrations from Illustrator, make booklets, poster etc. But you need to know the typographical rules and have a minimum of graphic design knowledge. Then a whole world will wait for you. Enjoy!!

This book serves the purpose that it claims to. A complete course, and a compendium of features.I love how the compendium "tabs" are listed at the side of each page. Nice touch.

This was worth buying if you want to know how to use InDesign. The templates that you download are great. I got the Kindle version of the book and the formatting was good. I worked my way through the tutorials. I have some Udemy tutorials for InDesign but these were more helpful. The Compendium is HUGE, though. I wish there were a sequel to this book with more on just making really good ebooks.

I needed this text for class and it arrived very quickly and has some great information for what I needed to learn.

Easy to follow along with.

Great division, easy to find help with specifics.

Because Adobe products are cloud-based, they are in constant change. As a result, a book like this -- just two years old -- is out of date. Many of the screen shots no longer match what's on your computer screen. Many text descriptions, as well, are wrong because the program has changed. Certainly, there is much in the book that has utility, but do not expect to get full value.
