    InDesign is the best program of the Adobe programs, hands down! Thanks for the tutorial.

    Thank you very much for this tutorial. This is one of the few inDesign tutorials where someone actually walks you through the process with voice instructions. Again, thank you very much for making this tutorial. I have definitely learned a great deal from this tutorial and have subscribed to your channel for future videos!

    Nikki, Thank you so much for this. I am an Independent Lifestyle Photographer and Magazine and I Love, love, love your tutorial. It made things a lot easier and quicker for me to get through "Idea Block", LOL I can take it from here. Will definately be watching more of your videos. I'm a lifetime subscriber now.

    You are a life saver. I am doing the school Magazine and have never used InDesign before. I've used Photoshop and Publisher which is helpful. I was feeling very overwhelmed and wondering how I was going to do this when i didn't really know where to start. You have given me confidence to go and do it now. Thanks so much

    • @designlikeapro
      @designlikeapro  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks Judy! InDesign is so much easier in the long run for publications over Photoshop and Publisher. You have a lot more flexibility and you can easily pull graphics from Photoshop into InDesign.

  • @SimonAndrews1337
    @SimonAndrews1337 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Thanks for the tutorial. This was my first look at InDesign, and was pretty easy to follow. I was happy with my final design spread. I do have a lot of experience in other Adobe CC products, but I imagine this would be tricky to follow for a first Adobe CC project of any kind.
    It would be useful if you used software like Spot the Mouse (Windows) or similar so we can see the keyboard shortcuts as you use them.
    These notes might prove useful to someone.
    In 2019 the layout can be sufficiently matched to this vid in Window>Workspace>Essentials Classic
    Swatches is under Window>Color>Swatches
    6.42 Preview key is w
    7.13 Hold Shift to keep new block aligned with old.
    7.25 Shift + Cursor Arrow to jump the page number across
    Working with colors is very different from PS, so still have lots to learn!

    @budster8 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is great for newbies - just want to pick a nit - when placing your "Awesome Product" text, it seems that you would want to factor in the bleed. In other words, drag text box from the left TRIM edge to the right if the box, rather than from the bleed edge to the right of the orange box. Otherwise, you will wind up with unequal spacing around the text.

    The 8.2677 x 11.6929 size is just an A4 (210x297 mm). Pick that from the preset, the units should stay as inches if you have that set.
    Or enter 210mm and 297mm into the width and height fields, InDesign will conver it automatically.

    How does a spread like this project translate into print. I'm working on a stapled brochure that is 6 pages plus a front and back cover but I don't want to start designing it until I know how each page is oriented for print. I'm trying to avoid any kind of back-tracking if I design it wrong.
