I’m happy to announce the release of my new lynda.com course, Developing Multi-state Objects with InDesign. The idea for this course came about from the myriad questions I’ve received and read in the Adobe forums as well as the little quirks I’ve found while working on multi-state objects (MSOs) for both Digital Publishing Suite (DPS) and/or fixed layout EPUB.

While most of the movies in the course are applicable to both DPS and EPUB there are a few that only pertain to one or the other. I hope you’ll find it helpful and informative should you be working on a project for DPS or EPUB.

So, why the Almost in the title of this post? There are still a few bugs in in EPUB export (particularly with anchored buttons) that made it difficult to demo some of the neat little tricks you can do and I didn’t want to do anything that might be confusing but overall, I think it’s a fairly comprehensive look at MSOs and should get the wheels turning for your own DPS or EPUB projects. There is as with all courses, a feedback button and you can reach me that way or through comments on this post. Either way, I look forward to your feedback.

While I’m on the topic of lynda courses, while I was in California recording this course I recorded a few updated movies for my Adobe Digital Publishing Suite Essential Training course so be sure to check that out, as well.
