InDesign Secrets Podcast

Tips, tricks and obscure InDesign functions are brought to light by David Blatner and Anne-Marie “Her Geekness” Concepcion

I must admit, I have always been bad with podcasts. I have always thought: “I really cannot be bothered to sit down and just get an influx of data for so long.” I tend to prefer the normal written tutorials, which I can print any time I want, with nice illustrations and so on. I thought that way until I heard the InDesign Secrets podcast from the David Blatner and Anne-Marie Concepcion, also authors of InDesign Breakthroughs.

I fell in love with InDesign Secrets after the very first podcast I listened to; David and Anne-Marie do a good job answering many common–and less common–questions, giving their podcast a real pragmatic approach. I find their “Obscure InDesign Feature of the Week” to be very useful also. I consider myself to be an advanced InDesign user, yet their “Obscure InDesign Feature of the Week” has surprised me. For example, do you know all the tricks you can do with ink aliasing? Listen to their 10th InDesign Secrets Podcast and you’ll know.

Enough with the talk, I encourage you to listen to their podcast, which you can find here. If you have a zillion things on your plate like me, you will also find that the InDesign Secrets podcasts aren’t longer than 24 minutes. So they are not only useful, they are also short and sweet.
