Description

Our two day course will provide you with the core skills you need to make the most of this extremely powerful application.

Adobe InDesign software lets you focus on your layout, with the flexibility to publish your pages to a wide range of media.

Whether you need to reposition an image within a frame or change the radius of a rounded corner, InDesign helps you work more efficiently.
