Pam Knight and Karen Kreps will demonstrate the importance of proper formatting of an InDesign book for exporting to these formats. We’ll also discuss the process of bringing a book to market.

Pam Knight, publisher for Plain View Press (1976) and founder of Isis Interactive (1993), is a producer and content developer who has used Adobe products for many years.
