Kevin Slimp worked with the team at Adobe during the development of InDesign in the mid and late 1990s and was one of the first to teach the application immediately after it was released to the public. His first class was for a group of 99 newspaper designers in Phoenix, Arizona.
One thing that still surprises Kevin is that he still learns something new almost every day while using the popular application. In this session, Kevin plans to share insights into using many of InDesign tools that most users never learn to use, or have simply forgotten about. A few of many tools Kevin will discuss include:
  • Anchored Object Options
  • Text Frame Options
  • Various methods of creating clipping paths (cutouts)
  • Using Object Styles in place of Paragraph Styles (it’s true!)
  • Preflight Tool
  • Creating a Workspace
  • The correct way to setup Bulleted and Numbered Lists
  • The secret power of Find & Replace
  • Creating Print Presets
  • Newest Tools in InDesign 2024 and InDesign 2023 (There are several of them, and you’ll use them)
And much more! Learning to use these tool will save hours in your production workflow, and improve the quality of your layout at the same time. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from the guru himself, Kevin Slimp, on March 21. Bring two pens!
There’s so much to InDesign that most folks learn on their own and never get a grip on many of the basic tools that make the application so powerful. During this session, Kevin will look at many of the tools (in the toolbars, menus, and other places) that often get overlooked by InDesign users. Many of these tools can mean the difference between hours of work and minutes of work.
This session will be especially useful for veteran or novice InDesign users, with plenty of information to give everyone more InDesign tools for their arsenals.
Bring two pens. You’ll need them!
