Creating InDesign documents from templates // Commercial printing

In this lengthy module we’ll explore InDesign templates, which are often created by design agencies for marketers to use. As well as working from templates you’ll learn how to create your own, and finally you’ll learn some crucial technical information to help you send InDesign documents to be commercially printed.
