New iPad Publishing Course

October 11th, 2011 by bigwave Leave a reply »

Following on from the release of the Adobe Publishing Suite, it is now as easy to publish to the iPad as it is to print.  So we are excited to be delivering a new iPad Design and Publishing course…

iPad Publishing Course – 1 x day

If you have content, be it sales reports, marketing materials, or commercial publications like magazine content – why not reach out to your audience by publishing it to the iPad or other tablet devices?

With Adobe InDesign alone, or combined with the Adobe Publishing Suite, we’ll show you how to make stunning content come alive on the magical iPad…

The Adobe® Digital Publishing Suite is a complete solution that lets individual designers, traditional media publishers, ad agencies, and major media and brand organizations create, distribute, monetize, and optimize cutting-edge interactive content and publications for tablet devices.

Built on plug-ins and extended functionality developed in the latest version of Adobe InDesign, you can now create stunning interactive content for mobile devices and tablets like the iPad.  By taking all your existing images and content you can turn brochures, advertising materials, sales demos, company reports, and complete magazines into digitally published content.  Pinch, zoom, rotate, and interact using touchscreen functionality. If you only want to share content with clients and colleagues — allowing them to view on iPad, Android, or BlackBerry devices – then all you need is InDesign CS 5.5

Who is the course for?

This one day course is for designers, marketing staff, project managers, or anyone who is interested in publishing content to the iPad,  and is looking to find out how the digital publishing process works.  You may be working directly in publishing, or marketing, or simply looking to develop your publishing skills for the next big publishing platform.

What will the course include?

The course takes you through the complete workflow of publishing to tablet devices, and includes hands-on training using InDesign and the Digital Publishing Suite.  By the end of the course you will have developed and published exciting interactive content to a tablet.

What prerequisites are required?

Attendees should have existing knowledge of desk-top publishing concepts to gain the most from this course, and ideally would have already taken the Essentials in InDesign or InDesign Pro-Skills course, or have equivalent knowledge.

Below is a summary of the course content to be covered (The content is subject to change due to the fast pace of product development in this area).
