Product Description
Adobe InDesign is taking the publishing world by storm and users are hungry for breakthrough solutions to their myriad concerns—from how best to manage the program's sometimes unwieldy interface to how to produce quality PDF files. Page-layout guru David Blatner and veteran trainer Anne-Marie "HerGeekness" Concepción have scoured the online forums, interviewed Adobe engineers, and gathered together answers to over 200 of the most-commonly asked questions. Written in a sassy, fun-to-read style, this book tackles every major InDesign problem with a lay-it-on-the-line solution.
Adobe InDesign CS/CS2 Breakthroughs is for anyone who has been using InDesign long enough to realize that the solution to their problems isn't always as obvious as one would expect.

Reader ReviewsI've been an InDesign user since version 2 and spend 12 to 15 hours a week using InDesign. Nevertheless, I learned a lot of things I didn't know, and have already integrated a number of them into my work. One quibble (and the reason for only 4 stars): in a few cases, the authors mention third-party scripts for the Mac but none for Windows, even when there are Windows scripts available that do the same thing; and the one script they include in the book is in AppleScript, rather than Javascript, which would be cross-platfrom. But other than that, there's nothing to criticize at all in this valuable resource.
