Before doing it, let me say a few words. When contacting Indesign at first glance, many friends will feel very unfamiliar and uncomfortable.

When you are not proficient in Indesign, you may not have a deep understanding of the advantages and powerful functions of Indesign, and then you will think that Indesign is not as good as the previous PageMaker. I also had this illusion when I started using Indesign. However, when you sit down in front of the computer, light a cigarette on the right, make a cup of tea on the left, open the manual in front of you, and spend a day or two, forget about the PageMaker you are familiar with, and devote yourself to every research of Indesign. A function, and think about how much convenience these features will bring to my typesetting work, try again and again on the computer. In this way, you will gradually become familiar with it, like it, and will swim in the free kingdom of Indesign. In the end, Indesign will surely become an indispensable tool for you.
