This course will allow you to create your own ebook and send it out to the market. Many “pro” ebook designers learn from YouTube as they go, wasting your money. Other Indesign ebook contractors charge insane amounts of money. That’s why I made this course. It’s for people who want to learn ebook creation with Indesign, whether it’s for their book or to learn a new skill.
This class shows you how to use Adobe Indesign to create a professional ebook without touching one line of code. The best part is you can use this layout for both an ebook and a print book using the techniques in this class.
This course is for you! Most other Indesign courses teach lots of extra material that won’t help you. This course is specifically targeted at people who want to create an ebook using Adobe Indesign without all the headaches of custom code.

By the end of this course, you will have learned to make an ebook.
