Adobe InDesign CS3 Revealed (Revealed (Thomson))1 review
Chris Botello
Delmar Cengage Learning, 2007
Very Best
This is the best workbook on Indesign CS3. I went through 3 other books. This is the best. Neatly laid out. Simple steps given. Perfect if you know nothing about Indesign. This is worth the money, even though it is a high price book. After going through this, you will not be groping in the dark with Indesign.

A Designer's Guide to Adobe InDesign and XML: Harness the Power of XML to Automate your Print and Web ...3 reviews
James J. Maivald, Cathy Palmer
Adobe Press, 2007
XML for the Rest of Us!
Despite being an Adobe Certified Instructor in InDesign, I never really understood working with XML until I read this book. Maivald and Palmer have taken an otherwise mysterious language and made it clear and understandable for anyone. This book has no peer and is a must for those interested in harnessing the power of XML.

Real World Adobe InDesign CS2 (Real World)6 reviews

Peachpit Press, 2006
Best Reference for InDesign CS2
Real World InDesign CS2 is what the users manual should be. For example, It covers Tables which only appear in the online help for InDesign CS2. The users manual only makes reference to See the Help files. Like the previous Real World InDesign texts it is well written, easy to understand, and covers all of the functions of the software. From creating an initial layout to color management to ...

InDesign for QuarkXPress Users3 reviews

Peachpit Press, 2003
Time to Make the Switch
I too was terrified to make the switch from Quark to InDesign. I consider myself to be a Quark "power user" and was so comfortable in the program that I found it scary to leave. I recently saw David speak at the Digial Design Conference in Seattle and I felt assured that the time had come to make the switch - or become a technological dinosaur. So after seeing David speak I purchased the book ...

Katrin Straub, Torsten Buck
Peachpit Press, 2004
I could not have been happier with this book.
"Creating a Newsletter in InDesign" is a Visual Quick Project Book published by Peachpit Press. It is authored by Katrin Straub and Torsten Buck. I highly recommend it as a book which should be in the hands of any beginner with no background in graphic design or page layout who takes on a project for the first time, like yours truly, of doing a Newsletter that can "raise the bar" in ...

Let me first start by saying the entire line of Lynda.com videos are first rate. In fact they are so good the training department at our company studies them learn techniques for doing online videos/tutorials for our software.
As for this specific title I was very pleased with the knowledge I walked away with. I watched it twice because I was so interested how this process could work for my ...

InDesign 1.0/1.5 for Macintosh and Windows (Visual QuickStart Guide)4 reviews
Sandee Cohen
Peachpit Press, 2000
Just the ticket for this experienced beginner!
Ms. Cohen's Quickstart Guide to InDesign was perfect for me to get a, er ... quick start in learning this sophisticated design tool. I write this as someone who's had lots of experience with other computer tools, but who's new to page layout; although I expect it'd be equally helpful to anyone who'd dare to approach anything as complex as a desktop page layout program. The book's strengths, ...

Not just another boring text book
Man this book is funny. I mean I thought Adobe Indesign was going to be good to learn but complicated. Not at all though, this book has all these samples in it so you can see it and not just read about it.
The steps are really funny if you read the sample articles and stuff. Theres this one about motorcycles that kind of irritated our teacher, but it was So Funny. And the back has all of these ...

Course Technology, 2004
Adobe InDesign CS Review
The book is very well organized, progresses logically, and is well illustrated. It provides appropriate explanations of basic graphic design terminology as well. It will be excellent for an introductory survey class, especially for schools using the Adobe Creative Suite as their creative and publishing software base.
The overview explanations of each activity are informative, the following ...

This book tells you how to really use a great product.
I've gradually been working my way up the Photoshop ladder for the last three years and finally got to Photoshop 7. It became obvious fairly early on that that there was much more to it than Adobe's manual described, so I started searching for a better book. Blatner and Fraser's book is it. I still have a lot more to learn, but now I feel comfortable with using Photoshop 7. The book is ...

Essentials of Adobe InDesign CS21 review
Kevin A. Siegel
IconLogic, Inc., 2005
Easy to Use Workbook Makes a Great Learning Tool
I tried to teach myself indesign by starting the program and creating a new file. Sounded like a good idea but I was quickly stuck. When searching for a book to teach me how to use the program quickly, I was hoping for a book that was kind of like attending a class. I shot and scored with the first purchase, this one. This book started me off where I should have started, from the beginning. ...

More than I ever expected to learn
I bought this VQS because I like the series. But this book goes way beyond the other VQS books. The author really understands what students need to know. Not only does she explain how the features work, she adds extra information on "why" things should be a certain way. For instance, not only does she explain how to create a style sheet, but she tells you how many style sheets she used to ...

Excellent Starting Point for Learning the Basics
I've been taking copious notes while watching this video series since Monday. David Blatner, who blogs on InDesignSecrets.com, is the host. His style is very straightforward as he teaches you both the basics of this program and tricks on how to maximize your time by using keyboard shortcuts, customizing your menus, adding special characters, importing text, etc.
The video on importing text is ...

Best Step-By-Step Book I've Seen
I just completed the Essentials of InDesign CS by Siegel and can give it an enthusiastic 5 stars. I appreciated the way the book guided you through the basics of InDesign to such advanced topics as master pages, style sheets, tracking, kerning and even the book feature.
I will look to IconLogic for all of my quick learning needs in the future.
