      • Overview
      • Curriculum

      Do you need to make a layout for a fiction book for professional publication? Perhaps you are an author and want to learn how the book layout process works so you can make your own PDF. This course is for you! Most other Indesign courses teach lots of extra material that won’t help you. This course is specifically targeted to people who want to learn fiction and textbook layout without all the fluff.

      This course helps you avoid mistakes like:

      • Creating text that’s incorrectly spaced out and looks weird
      • Justified text that still looks jagged – pro tips
      • Overload of hyphen breaks
      • Orphans and widows – random text starting a page
      • Wrong hyphens – you probably used the wrong hyphens

      It’s so easy to make mistakes and not see them during book layout. Our instructor has seen books with beautiful covers but the inside looked like a hack job. Trying to do book layout in Microsoft Word will make your book look terrible. Word just doesn’t have the right tools.
