London, UKLearning NewsHighlander

Highlander, a leading creative training provider, has added a new course specifically to meet the growing demand for electronic publishing skills.

 

Creating ePubs with InDesign CS5 is a 1 day course targeted at existing InDesign users who are looking to push their content out to electronic devices. The course is delivered by Highlander's certified instructors, and covers a wide range of topics including the ePub format, working with InDesign long documents, modifying documents for ePub, Video and your eBook, managing images, embedding metadata, converting to other eBook formats and lots more.

As Andy Gardiner, Managing Director of Highlander explained "During 2010 there has been a steady increase in the number of companies publishing content to electronic devices, and you only have to look at the number of newspapers and magazines now offering versions for the iPad to see how popular this has become"

He goes on to say "InDesign CS5 offers the opportunity for users to export documents to the ePub format and leverage many of their existing InDesign skills, however there are also new skills and techniques which need to be adopted in order to make this a successful process. With the right training and support electronic publishing can help organisations compete successfully, even in difficult times."

With the growth in electronic reading devices set to increase, this is going to be a key skill going forward and one that all InDesign users will benefit from learning.
