It's my first time ever using InDesign & I was totally confused, this was extremely helpful. Thanks a million.

[@LauraMendozaPictures]

AMAZING, I am new to Indesign, I have been looking for this all week. Easy, simple, perfect. Thank you : )

[@MellowNeptuneWaters]

This was BRILLIANT and so very helpful. This video answered several questions that I wasn't expecting you to answer all in one spot. Thank you.

[@4TheCreatives]

Thanks for the tutorial. I really like the way you explain very clearly.

[@Ladygrace7]

You're such a good teacher!! Glad to have found you :-)

[@InitiativetHH]

Thank you very much! I have learned using InDesign by myself for many years on a rather basic level and this video filled in some of the gaps in my knowledge. Very useful and very easy to understand.

[@AmarEnergy]

THANK YOU! I can tell by the way you explain things clearly and easily that you don't work for Adobe. In 9 minutes you answered a question that I couldn't find the answer for!

[@fatimaazahraaddou9652]

[@mechellleroux6984]

Great video. I had a question... If I have a few vector images which I've placed within a shape frame... how do I take them out the shape frame without having to select each vector image individually? Is there an option/button to take all the objects out from a frame in one go? I don't want to delete these vector images within the shaped framed I just want to have them placed outside the shape frame as opposed to inside the shape frame (without using Ctrl Z, of course). I would really appreciate your help, I've searched for this for a few months now. Thanks!

[@DarrenSmith501911]

This is a very helpful tutorial. I used InDesign for a magazine project and wish I would have known about creating the grid option. I did know about placing, fitting and scaling images. I need to work on using the Pen tool to create custom shapes. I believe there a tool in Illustrator or Photoshop that lets you choose from custom shapes.

[@markoffset3417]

thanks..... nice presentation !

[@hanshazz3168]

You are good my man, thank you!

[@randallicious729]

great tutorial. i’m trying to find out how to crop an elliptical image that bridges the seam between the 2 pages in a spread. i know i’m not using the proper terms here bc i’m not a trained graphic designer, but i’ll try to explain... i have a circle and i’m placing it near the center of the spread. i want to crop off one side of it so it only appears on one page and it will have one flat edge.. how do i do that?

[@mlee117]

Very informative video. Subbed 👍🏼

How did you connect those dots that you made using pen tool? If I use the pen tool, i'd just make rigid lines. Thanks.

Hello! Very helpful video! Could you please tell me how to place/import an image so that it becomes an integral part of the document (and not a link to the file)?

[@niharikadawar6639]

amazing

[@klaceysphotography1107]

When I tried to place the image in the shape, it put only a part of the image in the shape where the image was so large, and I could never readjust the size of the image to fit it into the shape?

[@gandyrojas6080]

Nice and Easy, Tnks

[@4TheCreatives]

I think it was good too. This is my favorite program to work in.

[@wahapete]

Thank You, very well done! All I wanted to do was make about 30 pictured name tags. I've been struggling for days in MS Word. You cut it down to minutes.

[@emerranacuaamihan1123]

how about placing images with the text around the area ❤️thank you

[@lenaeliza7230]

Thank you!!! You saved me from having a heart attack

[@samuelbanfield4937]

Hi, I have a Mac. I tried the control + Shift key option to create the grid and that didn't work. Is there a short cut on a mac that creates a grid?

[@atechox4407]

Good explaining, help my assessment. why not leave a like 😂

[@user-sp2jo3su3c]

how can i make the parts of the image that are behind the frame visible? I`m working with a large image thats being placed into a very tiny frame, so its very inconvenient to only be able to see a little square and not the whole image

[@leomac1829]
