What You Will Learn?

  • Ready to start creating books like a professional? Adobe InDesign is the industry standard for book designers for a reason: it's powerful! But all those features can get confusing. In this course, I'm going to show you the step-by-step process to format a novel or other manuscript into a tidy professional book interior..
  • This will create an interior that is ready for printing with Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, or any other book printer..
  • Our sample is going to be a no-bleed book interior, but we do touch on how to calculate the page bleed if you're designing something with edge-to-edge images!.
  • By the end of this course, you're going to be able to produce a finished professional book interior. You'll have the skills necessary to create as many books as you like; this is great for self-publishing authors, but also designers who are looking to add another type of design skill to their portfolio!.
