Great resource,
This review is from: InDesign CS5 for Macintosh and Windows: Visual QuickStart Guide (Paperback)
My instructor used this book for an InDesign course, and I found it very helpful. It's not an attractive guide for beginners, but once you're comfortable with InDesign, this is an excellent resource. The index in the back is extensive, and this is my number one resource when I'm doing layout.

InDesign CS5 for Macintosh and Windows: Visual QuickStart Guide,

This review is from: InDesign CS5 for Macintosh and Windows: Visual QuickStart Guide (Paperback)
Not at all what I would expect from a how-to-use book about graphic design software. Difficult to read/follow; printed in newspaper columns, 2 per page; and all in BLACK AND WHITE! Who would ever think to publish a book about computer graphics software in black and white? Unbelievable! I returned it as soon as I opened it.

This review is from: InDesign CS5 for Macintosh and Windows: Visual QuickStart Guide (Paperback)
As a professional InDesign trainer, I used 75 copies of this book - purchased from Amazon - during my training seminars this month.The black and white format allows adult learners to effectively make notes and mark up important items with a red pen. With a background in graphic design, I appreciate the clean 2 column pages, large and plentiful screen captures and indented step by step instructions. Adequate white space avoids overwhelming visual clutter typical of other books. A consistent thread of lighthearted reference to the Wizard of Oz in graphic examples keeps you smiling while learning the software. Sandee Cohen is an expert in InDesign, graphic design, technical writing and teaching this material - a winning combination. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful

I use In-Design and have found this to be a great quick reference guide to help when you have a question. It is also great to review before you purchase In-Deisgn so you know what it can do. I recommend this to anyone.

Extremely satisfied User,

This review is from: InDesign CS5 for Macintosh and Windows: Visual QuickStart Guide (Paperback)
The author did a superb job of focusing her information in an orderly manner, and then presenting it using two techniques which make it virtually impossible to not understand the process. First, on one half of the page she gives you the Commands and Actions required; Second she shows you on the second half of the page images of what you should select. I find that this book is clear, precise, and extremely valuable, certainly for the new user of InDesign. Finally, she provides a detailed, carefully presented Index so you can find solutions to the problems you wish to solve. I recommend this book without reservations, and find the price very reasonable InDesign CS5 for Macintosh and Windows: Visual QuickStart Guide (Visual Quickstart Guides)
