O’Reilly has launched the latest in its long line of training tools, a new full-color glossy training book designed to help readers become Adobe InDesign CS experts.

Featuring Adobe Certified Expert (ACE) Deke McClelland, Adobe inDesign CS One-on-One, which costs $44.95, guides readers through a dozen topic-driven lessons, each with step-by-step, project-based exercises. McClelland says readers will learn what to do--and why--as they develop both the skills and understanding they need to become InDesign experts.

"I walk you through InDesign just as if I were teaching you in a classroom or corporate consulting environment," says McClelland. "Except that instead of getting lost in a crowd of students, you receive my individualized attention. It's just you and me."

The training package also includes two hours of video-based training on an accompanying CD, which enables users to step through the lessons at their own pace, the company said.
