I thought I would give In Design a try; does anyone have a suggestion as for a tutorial (book, cd, dvd, etc...)

I am new to the program but I use Photoshop, AE, and FCP weekly so I get the basics...

Thanks...

I would suggest that you pick up a copy of Adobe's Classroom in a book for it. That is one of the books that I am using in school and it is quite easy to understand.

Alright, thanks.

Have you tried anything else? I've been disappointed by some of Adobe's classroom books...

The best book is "Real World InDesign" by Blatner and Kvern (check amazon).

There are Total Training InDesign training dvds. You might be able to get these as free training material at http://www.adobe.com/special/indesig...skit/main.html

As far as the Total Training dvd's go, are they worth the price? They are pretty expensive in my opinion... but if they are just great then maybe that would be the best option.

Does anyone have a testimonial using them?

Thanks.
