Meeting Summary: Interactive Party

Thu, Dec 10th, 2009 at 6:00 PM

Fuji Xerox epicenter

At this meeting we had an Interactive Party! We were joined by Adobe Ambassador Neil Oliver, who showed us some impressive ways to use InDesign's interactive features to create our very own dynamic PDF portfolios. Now we can break the shackles of traditional print and move into a new world of interactivity.

Neil also wowed the crowd by showing us how to create interactive forms in InDesign that could be exported to Acrobat for the final form creation, followed by easy ways to distribute forms and collect form data. The night concluded with a look and creating eBooks and ePub technology. Now there's no reason why you cant write your own literature and be your own publisher, getting your work online in the form of an eBook.

As always, the night was capped off with a Q&A where the winners all received great prizes! If you would like to check out more of Neil's great InDesign tricks, tips & tutorials, see his blog http://creativementor.com.au

Thank you to Adobe and Neil for supplying our prizes and to our ongoing sponsors Aquent, Fuji Xerox and Eliot & Company.

Til next meeting!
