Adobe InDesign for Nonfiction Book Layout – Complete Guide

Do you need to make a layout for a nonfiction book for professional publication? Perhaps you are a guide book author and want to learn how the book layout process works so you can make your own PDF. 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 learn nonfiction and textbook layout without all the fluff.

This course helps you avoid these mistakes:

  • Incorrectly layering images.
  • Improperly typesetting pages.
  • Classic manuscript import errors.
  • Incorrectly setting colors.
  • Making a hard-to-manage table of contents.

It’s so easy to make mistakes and not see them during book layout. Aaron has seen books with beautiful covers but the inside looked like a mess. Trying to do a book layout in Microsoft Word will make your book look terrible. Word just doesn’t have the right tools.

Manuscript software formatting guidelines include:

  • Microsoft Word.
  • Google Docs.
  • OpenOffice.

Even if you used a different program, the instructions for the above software will help you figure out what you need to do. Ask questions in the course forum and Aaron will do his best to help you out.

There are a lot of small but important details in a nonfiction book layout. Avoid making errors with this course. You spent 100’s of hours perfecting your manuscript. Don’t make the rookie mistake of making your book look like it was prepared by an amateur.
