Book Reviews of Adobe Indesign CS One-On-One

Book Review: Deke to the rescue
Summary: 5 Stars

So this local guy who has seen some of my work approaches me and asks if I could do illustrations, photo's and layout for a jazz guitar instruction book. Now I don't know about you but if there is one thing I have learned in this business is that the answer is always "of course" to whatever I am asked to do.

When PhotoShop went CS I bought the whole CS professional package. I knew that Indesign was there, but since I always used either PageMaker or Illustrator to do my layouts, InDesign was just a little too alien to me.

Could I have done the book in PageMaker? Maybe, but figured it must be easier in InDesign considering that that is it's purpose in life. As I have always considered the owner manuals useless, I hit Amazon.com and found Deke had a book on InDesign. Who would have thought that? I have always enjoyed his books on PhotoShop, so I had the book over-nighted.

Long story short, plowed through the book (excellent book I might add), did a few mock-ups, sent them to the author and got the gig! It's going to be a lot of work (Illustrations, Photo's, CD, etc) but I really feel that I can concentrate on all of that creative end now because I have the confidence that I can put it all together in InDesign. My copy now has about 100 flags sticking out of the pages where I found items I can use for the book.

Really, guys, this book is a home run. I did watch all of the videos but the lessons were so well written I really didn't need them (but I did like the fact that they were there just in case).

I can't recommend this book highly enough. You will just be amazed at the power this software has and the ease in which this book lets you master it. An absolutely stunning tutorial.

Summary of Adobe Indesign CS One-On-One

Adobe InDesign is widely regarded as the page layout/publishing program for the new millennium. It gives you precise creative control over the layout and design of your pages and documents, and its latest release, InDesign CS, is becoming wildly popular with users of many backgrounds, levels, and needs--from small DTP shops to graphics professionals to large corporations.

Unlike any other InDesign book, the colorful Adobe InDesign CS One-on-One delivers a one-of-a-kind learning experience much like having private lessons with author Deke McClelland, an Adobe Certified Expert and professional trainer with nearly 20 years of experience.

There's no better master than McClelland to show you how to master InDesign. He's a highly regarded expert and frequent lecturer on Adobe Photoshop, computer graphics, and design. He hosts the interactive Best of Photoshop CD that ships with Photoshop, and he has written more than 70 books. One of the most award-winning writers in the business, McClellenad is a member of the PhotoshopWorld Instructor Dream Team and a contributing editor for Macworld and Photoshop User magazines. In 2002, he was inducted into the National Association of Photoshop Professional's Photoshop Hall of Fame.

Under McClelland's seasoned guidance, you will proceed at your own pace through twelve step-by-step lessons packed with entertaining and informative real-world projects. More than 500 full-color photos, diagrams, and screen shots walk you through InDesign's many features, and multiple-choice quizzes following each lesson let you test your knowledge--and serve as an exceptionally practical tool for classroom instructors. Extra credit sections deliver tips and tricks for tapping into InDesign's most powerful capabilities.

This unique, hands-on book comes with two hours of video instruction (hosted by McClelland himself) on CD to get you working with InDesign right away, building relevant, real-world projects while mastering fundamental and advanced concepts, theory, best practices, and techniques for making the most of InDesign--to make the most of your page designs.
