5 out of 5 stars Easy to Use Workbook Makes a Great Learning Tool   October 28, 2005
 10 out of 10 found this review helpful

I tried to teach myself indesign by starting the program and creating a new file. Sounded like a good idea but I was quickly stuck. When searching for a book to teach me how to use the program quickly, I was hoping for a book that was kind of like attending a class. I shot and scored with the first purchase, this one. This book started me off where I should have started, from the beginning. Building methodially of one skill after another, I quickly found myself able to create master pages, style sheets, templates and, this is the biggie, book files, which was really important to me. Thanks for much for providing such a useful learning tool.
