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

  • @masumbinsharif

    Hi, I have been watching your indesign tutorials since 2016. I have learn lots of thing from your tutorial. I am really grateful to you. At you are the master of Adobe Indesign.

    • @designlikeapro

      Masum Sharif thanks for following since 2016! Glad my tutorials have helped you. 🙂

    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!

    Wow! This is so amazing! I have always wanted to start a magazine, but had no idea how to create it.
    In one 37-minute clip, you have made it so easy. I have learned so much, and going forward, I must work on and complete my magazine!
    God bless you as you help more people!

    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  5 років тому +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.

    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.

    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.
