Join David Blatner for an in-depth discussion in this video Getting the most out of this course, part of InDesign: Working with Photoshop and Illustrator.
- Before we jump in to exploring how InDesign works with Illustrator and PhotoShop I'm assuming that you know InDesign at least reasonably well already. For example, you should already know how to create and edit InDesign documents. Now, if you're brand new to InDesign I strongly recommend that before you watch this title you take a look at my title called InDesign CC Essential Training. here in the online training library. You might even want to review my title called InDesign Insider Training: Beyond the Essentials.
Now those two titles will really give you the foundation to excel in this course. The movies in this course are designed to be watched in order from the first chapter to the last. But take that as more of a suggestion than a rule. If you want to jump around from movie to movie as your interest guides you you'll still be able to learn that way too.
