After referencing dozens of books concerning InDesign CS4, - this book covers the essential, the most sought-out techniques in a logical easy to navigate layout. I do agree that the font is rather small, yet the content is superb.
I found this book helpful as an accompaniment to more detailed books. It explains InDesign functions with easys-to-understand language once a user has a general basic knowledge of how InDesign works. As a new user of InDesign CS4 I find it a very useful tool to supplement my other books and tutorials. You can find what you are looking for easily!!
Great book, I recieved it online and have been able to access it on my PC, iPad, and my windows phone.
Getting this documentation for the Kindle seemed like a great idea. But the screen shots were unreadable. I could not enlarge the teeny tiny print, like I could on the plain text. Nor could I enlarge the document or increase the contrast. A bust, as far as I was concerned for this type of document.
the book was in perfect quality, the price was a bargain, it arrived promptly... can't complain.
