A Fresh Take on Interactivity in InDesign

InDesign has a rich toolset for adding a wide variety of interactivity to your documents. But to use these interactive features well, sometimes you need to think a little differently. In this session, we will dig into the "how-to” to produce a series of interactive effects; hyperlinks, pop-ups, rollovers, multi-state objects, slideshows, buttons and more. We’ll also explore the different formats available to export your document out of InDesign, and the pros and cons of each. If you’ve tried InDesign’s interactive features and found them frustrating, or have heard clients ask, “can we make that interactive” but don’t know where to start, join Laurie in this fast-paced session and take a fresh look.
