Book Review - InDesign Type: Professional Typography with Adobe InDesign CS2

InDesign Type: Professional Typography with Adobe InDesign CS2 (Paperback)
by Nigel French.

This book is so packed with information, don't expect to read it in one sitting. More than likely, you'll read it a few pages at a time. This isn't a book that you read once and toss when a new version of InDesign comes out, this book applies whether you use CS1 thru CS4.

Nigel runs thru everything typographic in InDesign (as the title suggests). Chapter headlines like "Don't Fear the Hyphen" and "Text Wraps: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly", should give you an idea of the kind of fun and educational writing style Nigel has. My favorite fun chapter was the last one called "Type Effects", Nigel presented some great real world production tips that I've referenced a handful of times.
