[@KrishnaDraws]

New to the channel. I'm about to embark on learning InDesign and your tutorial was excellent. I love seeing practical, clear examples that I can apply into my own learning and practice. Thank you!

[@purplekrakenyut]

Finally, some good quality indesign layout content.

[@AngeloMontilla]

Thanks! 😊

[@gauravbiwalkar_marathimanoos]

Great as always ! Thanks a lot, Angelo

[@rosycspencer]

You are a great instructor. I think I will watch every tutorial you did and redo it.

[@AshTheMinecraftGuy]

These tips were CRAZY useful. All of this helps a lot to improve workflow. Been using InDesign for years but this helps massively. Thanks!

[@AngeloMontilla]

That's awesome! Glad to hear they will help your workflow too!

[@craigcannon4958]

14:40 when you go the Object Layer Options of the model with the jacket image and it shows two layers cutout and background, did you actually cut out the figure out of the background as two layers in Photoshop or would Indesign help cut that out for you?

[@AngeloMontilla]

Hopefully one day InDesign has an option to remove backgrounds. But yes, you'd have to remove it in Photoshop and save the file as a PSD. Great question.

[@wondwosentessema853]

Nice presentation indeed and thanks a lot. It is more informative and better designing way

[@calingeorgescu9789]

Yes. Perfect. Like always. Thank you.

[@FS4U-CH]

[@AngeloMontilla]

Thanks I am glad you found it helpful!

[@Aichauer]

is there a way to see a proper preview of the shapes and frames, when i drag them? i always see a square, but i want to see the elipse, or the polygon for a better placement. Thank you!🤗

[@TheAssadseenharo]

Useful tips for us beginners. I appreciate your efforts. Thanks!

[@AngeloMontilla]

Glad it was helpful!

[@gabbywilliamson76]

Wow I did not know you could do color theme or use the layers from a psd file. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@AngeloMontilla]

Thanks Gabby! Yes, so much InDesign can do. 🙂

[@muchlovebymel]

This was so helpful. Thank you!! I've been using Canva for so many things but really needing Adobe InDesign for a specific project or two (and to make life soooo much easier once templates have been made).

[@AngeloMontilla]

Thanks for the kind words! I am happy to hear it helped you! 🙂

[@AmritSingh-sc7fr]

Sir, my Find and Replace dialogue box indesign not working. Can you suggest anything?

[@Katwumyn]

Excellent video with great tips! Thanks, Angelo!

[@AngeloMontilla]

Thanks! I am glad you found them helpful!

[@dermotmaccormack3883]

Very good tutorial. There's always so much to learn in InDesign. I wonder why you turned off hyphenation when doing so created terrible rags on the right, especially on the wrap around. Would having some hyphenation not help the type rags?

[@sarahlauren]

Fantastic tutorial. Thanks so much. Just curious, how many words was the text that you inserted here?

[@AngeloMontilla]

Thanks Sarah! I'd have to go back and look, but my guess is like 400-450.

[@ethan_li]

How did you do the mockup view in the thumbnail so the pages dont look flat - like the shadows and highlight near the gutter of the spreads

[@AngeloMontilla]

I use Photoshop to do those. Have you worked with mockups before?

[@ethan_li]

@@AngeloMontilla No I haven’t used mockups before - How could I achieve this effect, is it just a premade overlay?

[@mbarnett865]

Thanks. Why did you feel the need to put your headline, subhead, and body copy in three separate text boxes? They could (should?) all be in one text box.

[@AngeloMontilla]

Thanks for the great question! It's all personal preference and 9/10 I will put the main title and subhead in the same text frame. But because I had the flowing jacket spilling onto the next page, I wanted to keep them separated this time. However, I never put the body copy in the same frame as the header.

[@timcooke5731]

[@ndc-01]

Great channel.

[@rosycspencer]

Do you have typesetting tutorials in InDesign?

[@AngeloMontilla]

I don't have anything specific. Please share what you'd like to learn about Typesetting and I will include it in future tutorials.

[@rosycspencer]

@@AngeloMontilla It will be great to have a tutorial that shows us a consistent setting or formula to avoid, widows, orphans, whiskers, and repeat words at the end of consecutive lines.

[@newsmancomputer1242]

Excelent Boss.

[@AngeloMontilla]

Thank you!

[@alexchmel]

Why do you need to set nested styles if there is a "Character Style" field in Drop Caps section?

[@kalampak]

wow

[@jamesoldman3021]

Just subscribed and clicked to be notified. You said you are working on a A4 size but everything is set in inches. You may call me weird but I am a Canadian that totally switched to metric. My question is why don't you use mm? I might be 84 so was not a young kid when Canada switched yet I prefer to watch instructional videos that are metric. Just so much easier to work with. I know there is a lot of people out there like myself unfortunately being in Canada to get KZbin to provide info other than from the U.S.A. is very difficult. Anyway your video's would mean a lot more to be in metric. Where do you publish?

[@AngeloMontilla]

Hi James. I've always used inches for print, because that's what we were taught us in design school and what's used primarily in the industry. I am Canadian too, but just have been more comfortable working in inches for print, and pixels for web.

[@jamesoldman3021]

@@AngeloMontilla Mine is more a hobby after retiring and in the mapping sector all maps have been metric since the 70's. Guess I'm lucky having a printer that has no problem with Metric. Also doing a lot of my work for Non Profits I find they want posters and being able to switch easily between A2 - A3 - A4 and sometimes A5 & A6 is a great advantage. Pamphlets, newsletters and small books think the printer is an immigrant as he does seem comfortable working in metric.

[@alexchmel]

You don't have to select the entire paragraph to create a new paragraph style, you just need to insert the cursor anywhere in the paragraph. Furthermore, if you select the entire paragraph and it contains conflicting settings, none of them will be included in the style, and the style will be incomplete.

[@myronachtman4304]

I noticed that you said "collapse" the panel when you were actually opening the panel. This happened twice in this tutorial.
