1.1 Welcome to the Course

Hi, there. My name is Daniel Walter Scott, and I'm an Adobe certified instructor here at Envato Tuts+. Now in this course, I'm going to show you everything you need to know about getting started with Adobe InDesign. Now this course is aimed at people completely new to InDesign. There is no need to have any previous experience in the software or graphic design or desktop publishing. We're gonna start right at the beginning and work our way through step by step. Together, during this course, we're gonna make a full page brochure learning the tools and techniques necessary to design it and get it ready for print. We'll work with color, we'll pick your own and use corporate colors as well. You'll learn how to choose and use fonts like a professional. You'll be working on longer text documents. You'll learn how to find, resize and crop images ready for your professional work. You'll learn how to open other people's InDesign files, fixed the fonts, fix the images, so that you can start making adjustments. So, if you've never opened up InDesign, or you have and you've struggled a bit with it, come with me and I'll show you the easy way to make beautiful design work in Adobe InDesign.
