Why take this course?

Do you need to make an ebook from a fiction book without using messy HTML code? This class shows you how to use Adobe Indesign to create a professional eBook without touching one line of code. The best part is you can use this layout for both an ebook and a print book using the techniques in this class. This course is for you! Most other Indesign courses teach lots of extra material that won't help you. This course is specifically targeted at people who want to create an ebook using Adobe Indesign without all the headaches of custom code.

  • Walter: "Your course was so helpful. My staff struggled for a month trying to learn Indesign from YouTube. We just wasted our time and missed critical opportunities. Your easy-to-follow teaching style literally hand-held us, taught my team time-saving skills, and saved us $1,000's of dollars in lost revenue. Thank you!" Walter P., Orange and Blue Marketing

From Aaron: "Hi there, my name is Aaron and I've professionally taught Indesign to hundreds of students. I've created hundreds of layouts in Indesign, from simple fiction books to complex guides and textbooks. Together we'll work through real projects with real manuscripts. You'll learn everything you need to know to be successful. This course is filled with instruction that gets you to success fast."

This course will allow you to create your own ebook and send it out to the market. Many "pro" ebook designers learn from YouTube as they go, wasting your money. Other Indesign ebook contractors charge insane amounts of money. That's why I made this course. It's for people who want to learn ebook creating from Indesign, whether it's for their book or to learn a new skill.

  • Bethany: "What you just taught me almost made me cry. Before your class, my boss made me change the font in our company book twice. It took me a week. With what you showed me, I could've been literally done in a minute. One week cut down to one minute. I hope others find your course." Bethany R., Outdoor Medical Training School

This course helps you avoid these mistakes:

  • Improper ebook formatting

  • Not adding a cover image

  • Classic manuscript import errors

  • Incorrectly choosing the wrong file type

  • Having to table of contents

It's so easy to make mistakes and not see them during an ebook layout. Aaron has seen books by great authors with terrible, incompatible ebooks. Trying to do an ebook layout in code is a waste of time when you can use Indesign to make a great-looking ebook quickly.

This course includes:

  • Sample files for practice

  • Sample copyright page text completely free to use

  • Ideas for adjusting your ebook

Aaron shares the tricks he's learned over years of doing ebook publication. The goal of this course is to teach you how to make your own ebook and not look like an amateur doing it. You'll learn the necessary skills to get the job done.

Manuscript software formatting guidelines include:

  • Microsoft Word

  • Google Docs

Even if you used a different program, the instructions for the above software will help you figure out what you need to do. Ask questions in the course forum and Aaron will do his best to help you out.

There are a lot of small but important details in the ebook layout. Avoid making errors with this course. You spent 100's of hours perfecting your manuscript. Don't make the rookie mistake of making your ebook look like it was prepared by an amateur.

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone wanting to create a professional ebook without using code.

  • Aaron's course is for people with no InDesign experience. No previous publishing knowledge is required.

  • This course is relaxed and bite-sized. It's broken down into small skills that won't overwhelm you. You only need basic computer skills to succeed.

Save time wasted on huge "master classes" that cover a lot of what you don't need. This course gives you exactly what you need to get the job done. You won't wade through endless discussions and stories that aren't relevant to your book layout. Save time and get the job done faster with Aaron's courses.

Aaron Linsdau Learning: Skills. Fast.

The instructor's voice is clear as well as his instructions. Also, He cares to be thorough and provides the essential details. And above all that, he is slow enough to follow him and fast enough to track time.

J'ai vraiment apprécié ce cours. Extrêmement bien présenté visuellement. Il fait partie des meilleurs cours chez UDEMY tant par son contenu que par sa qualité au niveau de l'apprentissage!

Es un buen curso sin embargo creo que va muy rápido si no se tiene conocimientos más avanzados en el uso de InDesign

This course is well-structured and comprehensive. It has information I couldn’t find elsewhere. It’s not often that I think a course is worth paying for when there’s so much information available online for free, but this course is definitely worth it. Even as someone who has experience with InDesign and with other Adobe software, I learned a lot from it. Aaron teaches you how to prepare your manuscript and design your book the right way so that you don’t come across issues further down the line that you could’ve avoided. This course makes navigating InDesign and designing a book feel manageable—and even enjoyable—rather than overwhelming.

The course was interesting and goes into detail about Indesign from an Ebook concentration. I'm glad I enrolled in the course. I have learned a lot.

Some of the instructions need fuller explanation. My screen doesn't look like what I'm seeing. Maybe we should start with a hard reset?

Il corso non ha corrisposto le mie aspettative. RItengo che la parte in cui effettivamente si parla di come creare un ebook è marginale e molti passaggi importanti del processo sono solo accennati o omessi, a favore di nozioni che invece non sono direttamente pertinenti alla realizzazione ebook. Dal mi punto di vista corso fuori focus e incompleto.

Der Kurs enthält alles, was man über das Erstellen eines E-Books braucht. Auch ein kleiner Exkurs in das Gestalten eines Covers ist enthalten. Super :)

I've been using InDesign since its beginning and now find myself needing to publish e-books. I hope this course will fill in some of the blanks I have with digital publishing specific issues.

Fabulous course and instructor! I loved his direct, no-nonsense style of instructing this material. I was struggling with many of the free online InDesign tutorials given the vast functionality of the program. But this course narrowed in on just the things I needed to know as a beginner. Highly recommend it to anyone planning to use InDesign for their Independent publishing needs.

Exactly what I needed. Some of my books are complex and I've had to pay a lot of money to have the ebook done. No longer!

I like these courses, however updates need to be made as I have 2022 and my things are a bit different I had to search on line to figure a couple of things out. but over all I know this course will help me to put out successful ebooks!

Kurs miał omawiać tworzenie e-booków w InDesign, tymczasem jest poświęcony podstawom tworzenia publikacji książkowych. Obejrzałem ponad połowę i autor nawet nie zbliżył się do tematu! Poza tym przekazywana wiedza uczy niechlujnych technik budowania publikacji (cały odcinek poświęcony technice wstawiania wymuszonych podziałów strony przed tytułami rozdziałów zamiast prostej modyfikacji stylu!). Ale przed wszystkim, to czuje się oszukany bo zamiast wiedzy o niuansach tworzenia plików ePub/mobi, oglądam banalne filmiki o podstawach warsztatu DTP, w dodatku o niewielkiej wartości.

I found Aaron to be very clear and precise when explaining. Thank you for this course. I learned a lot.

Sorry, but there is more teaching about InDesign then about producing e-books. I think I will get more technical information about elements in e-book: what can happend with pictures, tables, footnotes, ornaments after Chapter titles, headers, paginations... Still, there is some informations I learned, so I need to do some tests with my books and see, how all that things works. Thank you. David
