Very welcoming atmosphere and didn't feel out of my depth.
Attendee
Last week's inaugural meeting of the Cardiff InDesign User Group was enjoyed by all who attended, and everyone took something away that they would be able to start using immediately.
Jon Bessant and I were both really pleased to be able to answer your Creative Suite questions, covering not just InDesign but Photoshop, Illustrator and Acrobat in the process -- it was a lot of fun, with plenty of laughter (we have been named the new comedy duo of InDesign). It really was a great and very informal session and we really want to keep it that way -- so be sure to spread the word!
Lucky prize winners were Jack Wenman, who won a copy of the CS4 Design Premium Suite; Jeremy Bourgein, who won a two-day course from Certitec; and Gareth Evans, who picked up an InDesign book from Certitec.
To Adobe for their kind and generous support, and to Adobe Authorised Training Partner Certitec for sponsoring not only the event venue and the refreshments but also for providing two great prizes. We are also grateful to Regus BusinessWorld for their part in helping us to set up.
"Despite being a novice user I had plenty to take away and think about!"
"Great venue. Very well presented and friendly, informative and useful. Definitely return."
"Presenters were good and as always gave really useful advice. Very welcoming atmosphere and didn't feel out of my depth."
"Superb - learnt a lot of things that I didn't know - including Overprint Preview. The tutorial on Conditional Text was very informative."
The next meeting will be held in September and announced during the Summer.
