  • Through designing a simple booklet in this Adobe InDesign tutorial, you will learn the most important building blocks for book design. We will design a beautiful book (booklet in this tutorial, 4 pages) that is 5.5 by 8.5 inches. We will use the "Facing Pages" and "Primary Text Frame" features. You will learn about creating columns, using bleed, smart ways to insert (place) images into your design, and how to wrap text around your images. You will also learn how to use the Parent pages feature, which used to be called Master pages.

    9 mins, and you helped with practical book creation in a simple and efficient way, more so than some 3hr long vids I’ve seen

      @@ThressaWillett your manner and instructions are clear, and you give enough time to keep up and allow me to scramble and find pause if needed. I’ve written a book and have no idea how to use Indesign. I’m trying to keep costs down, and I thought if I knew photoshop id understand Indesign, but I am finding it very hard. Your videos help a lot.

    Nice tutorial...but...I always wonder why people think there should be music playing in the background when they are trying to teach something.

    • @ThressaWillett
      @ThressaWillett  3 місяці тому +1

      Thanks for the feedback. I no longer include music in the background with my newer videos. I initially used it when I didn't have a quality microphone because it covered up background noise. But this is not necessary anymore, so I agree!

    How to change text into a path at once, for example 32 pages at once. With the aim of printing operators not being confused because they have to install the font first?

    • @donefy13

      For example, in a similar case I can do it in Ai. Ctrl+A and Ctrl+Shift+O

    Is there a way to print them or do you just sell them online as a ebook ?

    • @ThressaWillett

      You can do either! Save as a PDF and post online or use one of the many book printing websites out there. They are pretty affordable!

      ​@@ThressaWillett You're most welcome. I apologize for my curt-ness. I could have stated that better but that music was like fingernails on a chalkboard. Super ADHD over here. In this case, in my opinion, the music was too loud and competed with your voice instruction for attention. Sound is a HUGE part of video production. Music selection is paramount because it makes an impact on mood and emphasis. But in a tute, it shouldn't draw attention to itself. There have been studies done that suggest classical music is the most conducive to learning. Ha, Jaysus...I didn't mean for this to turn into an essay. In this vid, the music was just too loud and was trying to steal attention from your brilliance. Super good video. I got exactly what I need. Gave you a like & sub. Cheers!

    • @ThressaWillett

      Thanks for the insight! I might start nixing the music, but I agree that classical might be nice.
