Mastering InDesign for Print Design and Production shows how experienced
professionals with deadlines and billable hours use InDesign efficiently
and effectively. Through the case studies and interviews, readers will
find inspired to look beyond the over-emphasized basic features and into
the depths of InDesign's utility for real-world print design. Most
InDesign books are written for beginners, and experienced users are
frustrated by them. When you already know how to make, fill, and thread
a text box, the entire first half of most InDesign books is useless. But
this one doesn't dwell on the basics. Mastering InDesign for Print
Design and Production fulfills the promise of the Mastering series, to
provide real-world skills to professionals and students. Like all
Mastering books, this one includes:
- A "by pros for pros" approach: The author is an active professional
working in the field of graphic arts, layout, and design, writing for
professionals who want to improve their skills or learn new skills.
- Real-world examples: Running throughout the text are examples of how
the various skills are applied in real scenarios, described throughout
the book in the form of examples and case studies from the author's own
design and consulting work, as well as interviews with other designers
using InDesign on the job.
- Skill-based teaching and hands-on exercises Although the book has a
comprehensive glossary, page one begins right away speaking to the core
market-print professionals-in industry terms about industry challenges.
This immediately lets experienced InDesign users know the book is about
them. The approach is humorous, making the digestion and retention of
complicated information easier for the reader through quips, anecdotes,
and design- and print-geek humor. But at all times the book is true to
its mission: Helping a professional do their job in InDesign without
frustration, confusion, or aesthetic compromise.
