Bespoke Adobe InDesign CC - 2 Day Advanced Training Course

Bespoke InDesign CC - 2 Day Advanced Overview

Adobe InDesign CC is the page layout application of choice for many users. It contains a host of advanced text, colour, print and layout features not found in any other application that can be applied to text and objects. It also boasts an interface similar to Adobe’s other leading design applications and so is intuitive for users of these applications.

Further, Adobe InDesign CC integrates seamlessly with the other Adobe applications and can include native Photoshop and Illustrator files, and in CC you can now centralise your whole workflow through Adobe Bridge. PDF output, XML, and export to GoLive output are also supported, making InDesign the perfect tool for repurposing content.

In this 2 day course we provide current users the ability to hone their skills and move their knowledge of Adobe InDesign CC to an advanced level. Using the skills learned at introduction or intermediate level delegates will create complex documents and work with a variety of palettes and tools to further understand the capabilities of this high-end design application.

(This course is also available as a 2 day session which provides time to cover all the elements in details and allows time for experimenting and creating completed designs.)

Course Target Audience and delegate prerequisites

This course is intended for those who wish to enhance their existing knowledge of InDesign and who work as graphic designers, creative professionals, print professionals, publishers, pre-press professionals, or marketing communications professionals.

You will need basic experience in using InDesign. Ideally, you will have taken our Adobe InDesign CC Introduction 2 Day course.
