Overview

The Adobe InDesign Bootcamp training combines our two essential skills classes into a single, comprehensive course.

This Adobe InDesign training course is designed to take you from a beginner to an intermediate level of mastery. Over the course of four days, you'll learn how to create professional layouts for everything from business cards to books. Your instructor will teach you how to work with text, graphics, colors, and typography in InDesign, as well as how to use master pages, paragraph and character styles, and quick keys to maximize efficiency in your workflow. 

You'll also learn how to import and export complicated files, work with tables and graphics within tables, and incorporate Illustrator and Photoshop files. In addition, your instructor will cover best practices for previewing and exporting high and low-resolution PDFs, as well as how to avoid common pitfalls in InDesign. By the end of this Adobe InDesign class, you'll be able to create rich layouts that meet the latest design standards and properly preview your files with separations and transparency previews.
