Training for Adobe InDesign CS:
Hosted by Steve Holmes, your instructor for this DVD video
series says this about why you should switch to Adobe InDesign CS;

	Watch a video clip!

“Adobe InDesign CS has so many features it is nigh on impossible
to say just one that would make you consider it above Quark. Everything
it does is better than Quark, faster, easier, more flexible, more
fun than Quark. Integration with Photoshop and Illustrator, the
main stays of design and imaging, is so much more than you can imagine.
You can do things in InDesign which are impossible even in Photoshop!
The sheer control of typography, especially with the use of OpenType
technology, opens the doors to creativity with type unheard of in
Quark – seriously! And the robust, built-in print and PDF workflow
makes output fast, efficient and wonderfully accurate. So what reason
do I give to suggest you switch to InDesign? None – only that InDesign
IS the reason to switch!” – Steve Holmes

To help you go from apprentice to InDesign expert, Total Training
has developed this engaging and memorable video training series.
Presented on four DVDs by Adobe software expert and professional
designer Steve Holmes, you’ll walk through all the fabulous features
in InDesign CS, learning techniques and getting tips and tricks
all along the way. Plus, you’ll receive an additional CD with project
files on it, which will allow you to follow Steve and work on designs
on your computer as he does in the training.
