Product Description
With its ever-tightening integration with Adobe's full suite of creative products and its own increasingly sophisticated feature set, InDesign is winning legions of Quark and FrameMaker converts. If you’re among them–or if you've decided to sidestep those programs altogether–you need this book. In these pages, the Adobe Creative Team uses a series of project-based lessons to provide a thorough grounding in the InDesign school of page design. You'll find step-by-step lessons in InDesign CS2 fundamentals plus plenty of the advanced tips and techniques you need to take your page designs to the next level. The workbook-style format includes self-paced lessons followed by review questions to reinforce the knowledge and a CD with all of the files required to complete the book's projects. Throughout, special focus is given to the features new to InDesign CS: the new Adobe Bridge file browser; object styles, snippets, smarter text handling, the ability to hide or show layers in Photoshop and PDF files, and much more.

 Adobe InDesign CS3 September 24, 2008
Item received before expected due date. Installed and used for classroom lessons and activities in a Desktop Publishing class. Very useful with great examples and activities.
Project due in two weeks and I don't know the software! September 23, 2008
Adobe InDesign CS2 Classroom in a Book saved my career! Coming from an MS Word environment, I was Adobe-resistant, but I had a book to get publisher ready so, in one week, with the help of this book, I learned to love InDesign by zipping through this book and the included CD ROM tutorial. Well worth the price. This is an excellent training manual.
Simple, Direct, Easy to Understand September 15, 2008
I have used these handbooks before, and they are the simplest to understand. I manage creatives and really don't know how to use the CS2 programs, but even I can pick up this book and create files with no experience. It is a great reference in helping to get my designers away from Quark and into InDesign.
 Good book but not a reference book March 19, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought this book and yes, it is a good book but it is not the reference book that I was looking for. I need to be able to look up how to do a particular application or what a certain button does. I have to figure out which lesson this might be found in and then go through to the lesson. This is time consuming and I do not always find the information I need. I am really looking for a great index with step by step on how to perform certain funtions.
Love it December 30, 2007
I was just starting to learn InDesign and had not taken any classes. This book was great. It really helped me through many projects. A definite plus to your library if your are an InDesign user.
