I'm curious ... are there any InDesign users in our community?

Do you ever use it for scrapbooking? If so, what do you use it for - full page layout, text layout, book generation, etc.?

I used indesign way back in the day.. like 20 years ago at a print shop and occasionally for a few years after for a few things I did freelance like brochures and stuff. Before indesign I used Quark Express at my job which was the industry standard for a very long time.

I subscribe to the whole adobe suite but I don't have indesign installed

I use InDesign all the time as I design magazines with it.

Absolutely LOVE it but would never scrap with it when I have the use of photoshop.

I also used Quark like KCB to design magazines, but that was many many many moons ago. ID is the go to for that kind of design work.

I remember there were so many people who did not want to switch over to in design when it first came out! I was pretty stubborn too LOL

I loved Quark but challenged myself to learn ID. I taught myself and haven't looked back since. But I hear you.. everyone thought Quark was the bees knees!

I still use it at work for magazines, newspapers, brochures and some other stuff but I don't think I would use it to scrap since I have Photoshop.
I remember years ago it was PageMaker before InDesign.

I had lessons in Quark Express as well, but I never really used it for my job.

Wow I haven't heard 'Quark' in a long time! I learned the basics of it to do some simple brochure designs at a job once. :)
