Episode 18: Table Talk – Part 1 (VIDEO)
If you haven’t already discovered InDesign’s robust table-creation feature, you’re going to be quite impressed by what it can do. If you’re familiar with tables, but haven’t used them that much, you’re going to find that the level of design control you have over tables — and the ways in which you can use them — is FAR BEYOND what you might have expected. This episode is the first of a two-part series where we explore how good tables can improve your design and good design can improve your tables.
You can now choose to download either the full-size 672 x 450 version or in the smaller iPod-compatible video format.
I think the tutorial was really good! Looking
forward for N2:)?r?nGreets from Denmark
Thanks, Slavi –?r?n?r?nI’m hard
at work on part two now and expect to have it up on Sunday. I’ve
been wanting to tackle this topic since the very beginning, because
Tables have changed the way I work and the way I approach the
presentation of information in my design. Like Nested Styles,
they’re one of InDesign’s true “killer” features. And also like
Nested Styles, it’s looking like this topic will take three episodes
to cover completely. But I think the payoff — and the knowledge —
will will be worth the time.?r?n
