Bespoke InDesign CC 1 Day Quark User Overview

InDesign Logo and QuarkXPress Course Delegates

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.

This course is aimed at experienced Quark users looking to develop skills for InDesign as an extra tool or for migration purposes. The key features of InDesign will be covered geared towards your previous knowledge of QuarkXPress. During the course we also create a print-ready version of a publication that you work on, to ensure that when you have finished the training you are able to cover all aspects of document production you are likely to work on.

(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

You will need basic PC or Mac skills, including a solid understanding of a computer's operating system (Windows or Mac OS). You will also need to know how to launch a program, create and save files, and copy files from CDs and other media.

Thoroughly enjoyed the two day training course. We had a fantastic trainer and the course content was very clear and helpful. Thank you very much.

Ella Luscombe, Kier Construction Southern, Adobe InDesign - Two Day Introduction

A thoroughly enjoyable course, very useful and brilliantly tailored to our requirements. Have completed two other introductory InDesign courses and this has been the best by far. Would definitely recommend to others.

Juliet McEwan, University of Glasgow, InDesign - 2 Day Bespoke Introduction

The course was great - a lot of content and adapted well for both attendees needs - brilliant trainer who obviously has a lot of experience which really helped. Thank you.

Amanda Hayes, Weil Gotshal & Manges, InDesign - 2 Day Introduction

Excellent course, excellent trainer. Learnt so much. We covered lots of things I had tried to do before with much difficulty. The training made things simple, I will be much more efficient now!

Laura Millar, FCA, Adobe InDesign - Two Day Introduction

Our tutor was very knowledgeable and very patient whilst training. He answered all questions no matter how small. Not only did he show us the Adobe way but also faster shortcuts to ensure workflow on the system is better. I would recommend this training to anyone remotely interested in print or digital design.

Marie Kinvig, Heron & Brearley, InDesign - 2 Day Advanced

Having no previous experience with InDesign, I felt that the course content was brilliant at introducing me to the program and building my confidence.

Abi Griffin, InDesign Introduction - 2 Days

The instructor was absolutely brilliant, he was enthusiastic and no question was ever too much to answer. The environment was lovely and learning was enjoyable.

Laura Kay, Lakelovers, InDesign Introduction - 2 Days

It was brilliant. I feel like I have learnt so much in 2 days. Our trainer was fantastic and I would love to come back and learn more.

Alex East, ISG, Adobe InDesign - Two Day Introduction

I have studied a course with XChange Training before and it is extremely well organised, friendly staff and has a good work environment.

Victoria Hassett, ETM Group, InDesign - 1 Day Introduction

I had no knowledge of InDesign prior to this training, now I feel like I can use it with confidence. The course has equipped me with new skills and knowledge that has made me genuinely excited to get back to work and use this software.

Sam Wright, Industrial Tomography Systems, InDesign Introduction - 2 Days
