Create Interactive Documents using Adobe InDesign CS5 (Paperback)

Designers today are increasingly called upon to create materials in a wide variety of media, or materials that can be delivered via multiple media, not simply for print or for Web alone. In Creative Suite 5, Adobe has addressed that need by making InDesign a powerful cross-media design tool, so designers can use the main tools that they're familiar with to create documents that not only look beautiful in print, but also provide all the interactivity customers expect when viewed online.

In this 4-hour video (and accompanying reference book), the equivalent of a half-day seminar, print designers learn how to setup an engaging and interactive user experience in a non-coding environment. Further, designers will learn how to prepare an InDesign document to use rich media elements (Flash movies, video, graphics) and set up interactivity using InDesign's buttons, hyperlinks, multistate objects, and animation, and movie panels. Among other things, the techniques taught in the class empower designers to take control and develop interactive documents, which will include animation, video, and user-triggered events. The finished product will include global navigation, sequenced animations of pages, video, and imported animations.

如今，設計師越來越需要在各種媒體上創作材料，或者製作可以通過多種媒體傳遞的材料，而不僅僅是印刷品或網頁。在Creative Suite 5中，Adobe通過使InDesign成為一個強大的跨媒體設計工具來滿足這種需求，這樣設計師們可以使用他們熟悉的主要工具來創建不僅在印刷品上看起來美觀，而且在線觀看時也提供所有客戶期望的互動性的文件。

在這個4小時的視頻（以及相應的參考書）中，相當於半天的研討會，印刷設計師將學習如何在非編碼環境中設置一個引人入勝且互動的用戶體驗。此外，設計師還將學習如何準備一個InDesign文檔以使用豐富的媒體元素（Flash電影、視頻、圖形）並使用InDesign的按鈕、超鏈接、多狀態對象和動畫以及電影面板設置互動性。除其他技術外，課程中教授的技巧使設計師能夠掌控並開發互動文檔，其中包括動畫、視頻和用戶觸發事件。最終產品將包括全局導航、頁面的連續動畫、視頻和導入的動畫。
