Check Out Sandee’s New Design into Print Blog and Podcast!
You’ve been reading Sandee’s posts and articles and books for years… now check out her new blog and podcast: From Design Into Print. As she explained to me recently: “there are far too many designers (even experienced ones) who have no idea what process/spot colors are, how to change resolutions, convert RGB to CMYK, send a job to a print shop, embed fonts in a PDF, preflight, etc. The book, blog, and podcast (blookcast?) will all deal with these topics. The funnest part for me is doing the podcast as it brings back my youthful dreams of being a late-night radio talk show host.”
Since I’m typing away here, I should also remind you about a few other blogs written by (or podcasts recorded by) friends of ours you should know about:
- Claudia McCue
- Jay Nelson & Jeff Gamet (Design Tools Weekly)
- Mordy Golding (Real World Illustrator)
- Pariah S. Burke
- Keith Gilbert
- Mike Rankin
Jeez, I’m sure I’m leaving lots of people out. But I gotta’ run! Joe-bob says, “Check ’em out!”

Here are a few more I subscribe to that I think InDesignSecrets users would enjoy:
Bert Monroy’s great videocast PixelPerfect
Cari Jansen’s blog and occasional video tutorials
Gabriel Powell had a companion blog/podcast going there for a while after his Instant InDesign book came out last year; but the info is still relevant.
Whew! Thanks, Anne-Marie!
Firstly – let me say a big thank you for the resource that is Indesign Secrets.
Just a bit of feedback on the FDIP podcast
I listened to the FDIP podcast and I couldn’t get to the end – it sounds like its been chopped up from a few phases and patched together later on – very hard going on the ear.
Out of gamut colour is an important subject – shame the podcast was such heavy going.
Let’s not forget Michael Murphy’s “The InDesigner” podcasts.
The description of the blog says that it is a companion blog for a book by the same title. Will Sandee be placing info for the new book there or creating an all new blog? Is there a place to find all of her stuff?
I added From Design Into Print to my design link list on my blog!
