Before I started working as the editor of InDesign Magazine and CreativePro, I spent a lot of time making books. All kinds of books. Textbooks, cookbooks, gardening books, computer books, astronomy books. You name it. So when I started doing courses for lynda.com, it was only natural that some of them were about creating long documents. Here are a few of the free videos from Creating Long Documents with InDesign CC. This course covers the entire process of making a book, from planning your workflow and creating templates, to building pages and chapters, working with tables of contents and indexes, delivering the final PDFs, and archiving assets for your next project. Enjoy!
