FrameMaker Training – Level I
Adobe FrameMaker classes are hands-on and project-driven. In this 2-day class on the unstructured features of FrameMaker, your projects will include creating one complete chapter—from scratch—in what will eventually be part of a multi-chapter book as well as editing a booklet. For more details on the specific features covered, see the list under Class Topics.
Because students will work along with the instructor to complete a series of projects, we recommend using two displays in our online classes (this could be two monitors, two computers or a computer and a tablet), so that the student can keep one eye on the instructor’s screen as they work.
A copy of the coursebook and the data files will be sent to you prior to the start of the class. The coursebook for this class is only available as an eBook.
