Designing Forms with Adobe InDesign and Adobe Acrobat Professional This meeting will focus on how to use Adobe InDesign (CS3 or CS4) to create attractive, practical forms. Pat Lally, a local freelance designer, will demonstrate techniques for setting up forms with InDesign, exporting PDFs and making the forms interactive with Acrobat. This meeting is for beginning and intermediate form users. Advanced users will probably pick up some good tips.
