Adobe InDesign CS6: Mastering the Essentials

Course Overview

Adobe InDesign, Adobe's page layout and design software, has been updated to accelerate user productivity with loads of new effects--including gradient feathering, inner shadows, and glows--that you can apply to objects on a page; finer transparency controls, which let you apply transparency settings independently to an object's fill, stroke, and content for more complex visual looks; numerous productivity enhancements; advanced find/change features; new table and cell styles; export to XHTML, and more.
