Interactive InDesign CS5

TRAMA

From creating interactive PDFs to full-blown Flash applications, the expanded capabilities of InDesign now enable design projects that go beyond print, into the world of Web and interactive. Designing for Interactivity with InDesign is the first book of its kind, expressly devoted to the interactive capabilities of InDesign CS5 and their use in creating documents destined for output to interactive PDF, Flash SWF, Flash Professional, or Flash Catalyst. Both a reference book, with sections broken out by topic, and a training guide, with real-world exercises and/or projects provided for each chapter, the book includes support files available for download on an associated website. It goes beyond simply teaching the function of InDesign to familiarize readers with conventions of Web and interactive design, audio and video compression and conversion, and the fundamentals of animation. Power-user tips are peppered throughout, and an entire section is devoted to productivity tools and techniques. There are also chapters on how to use Acrobat, Flash Professional, and Flash Catalyst to extend the InDesign-generated files, making this a soup-to-nuts guide on the InDesign-to-interactive workflow.
