- [Instructor] As a designer, you're used to using a myriad of different tools, like Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign. And often, you need to place, import, or paste content from one of these applications into another. But choosing the wrong technique or file format can sometimes lead to restrictions in your workflow. Typical symptoms of this are difficulties round-tripping between applications, having to flatten layers, or having to save multiple versions of the same file. All of this can result in lost time or unnecessary additional files for you to manage. Join me, Bart Van de Wiele, as we explore the best ways to navigate Adobe's flagship applications, using real-life production techniques you can apply in your print or online design workflows. Learning these techniques will allow you to work more flexibly and efficiently when using Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign together as a true power combo.
