Having an understanding of Adobe InDesign is a huge asset for anyone to have. InDesign enables you to format dynamic documents with ease and can totally transform your presentations, whether that be an advertisement, brochure, business card or a multi-page document. With InDesign’s formatting tools you can upgrade your work by implementing time tested Practical Graphic Design principles and level up your designs.
Join Graphic Designer Kyle Aaron Parson in learning how to effectively use the industry standard for desktop publishing, Adobe InDesign. Many people have great ideas and great content to share, however if it presented in a boring or mundane way people will just pass it by and move onto to the next thing that catches their attention.
