Mastering Adobe InDesign

Mastering along with InDesign Bible are both excellent as reference books to explain nuances and subtleties of indesign. Altho in both of them I would wish for more thorough index term listings, the content is eventually findable and sufficiently explained.

I work for a company that uses InDesign as a graphic engine for publishing software. In order to come up to speed on the program I read through a few other titles (InD..Classroom in a book, ..for dummies) before landing on this text another employee purchased. It steps you through the entire app from simple functions to the complex in their own sections. This allows the reader to not feel insulted by having to wade through a 5-page diatribe on "save as.." unless you need it. The advanced sections even brought some new concepts to the table that were not mentioned in the Adobe Manual, or glossed over at best. As an instructor of how to use InDesign, I now recommend this text to students who need additional outside resources for their own work --nice job!
