Well it’s been a busy 2022 already, one of my resolutions… well maybe my only resolution was to actually do something with all the thousands of images I’ve captured over the last few years. Maybe more than a few years, I got my first digital camera in 2002 and I’ve been blazing away ever since! My original plan was digital stock photography but the returns on that medium are now so low that it is barely worth doing.
So I decided to try my hand at book writing starting with an ebook on Kindle thinking that the file I created with the free software would easily translate into a paperback book. That turned out not to be the case though so I thought I was going to be limited to the ebook route. But I really want to be able to create a paperback so I didn’t give up. It occurred to me that Adobe has a good utility for doing just that called InDesign. What the heck, I thought… so I downloaded a seven day trial version to see if I could learn yet a new software package. Fortunately It is enough similar to Photoshop that I was able to pick up the essentials in a day and I’m about halfway through re-creating the ebook I had written on the raptors into the Adobe software. Besides, I figured if I was going to be serious about this there’s no way to avoid using serious professional software anyway.
But after sitting in front of the computer for a couple of days I’m still going to have to get out with the animals for a few hours, maybe tomorrow!

To do a digital book or a physical one, you will find InDesign the go-to app. It will serve you well. It is sophisticated in its own way. On the surface InDesign and Photoshop look alike but the two apps differ underneath. It takes a lot of learning to master InDesign.

indesign is the standard Desktop publishing software, I worked with it for years during my professional carreer.
Like Photoshop, there are other products but none that can actually do everything that needs to be done
