InDesign or Illustrator? or something else?? HELP!
Hello! Newbie here with a question.. I apologize in advance if I am in the wrong forum..
I am looking at getting into business with my father who owns a printing company, I will be in the Graphic Design side of the business..
I need to know which study course would be best for me to do.. Our company will do business cards, logo designs, flyers etc as well as my own little side business desiging web banners e.g Etsy, Facebook etc.. I just dont know which is best.. can anyone point me in the right direction please?
Honestly, you're gong to need a lot of training. You'll need to know Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign, and at least have a working comfort with Acrobat pro as a bare minimum.

What to learn? Illustrator, InDesign, or something else more appropriate?
Hello All,
I couldn't find an appropriate place to post this discussion, but I thought I would start here as I saw a similar discussion in this forum.
I have been a musician for a long time, running my own ensemble, but recently I have decided to pursue a path in arts administration, a sector in which I have moderate experience.
Still going to keep my music and ensemble going, but to bolster my resume as well as my skills to help my own ensemble, I've decided to take classes and pursue certification in web/graphic design at a local Art/Design college.
These days arts administration job postings seem to be looking for candidates that also have some digital media skills.
I'm starting off with a basic web design classes to become familiar with Dreamweaver, HTML, CSS.
This Art/Design College also offers courses in Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop. I will probably next take Photoshop, but wondering whether to take Illustrator or InDesign, or something else?
I think I understand what the two do, but would appreciate real world advice. I could take both, but I am wondering if I would spread myself too thin?
These arts admin jobs are probably looking for someone that can update/maintain websites, prepare images/videos/audio for websites; but also probably someone who can create simple flyers and brochures if needed. That is when I thought of InDesign. I also assume that InDesign also helps in preparation of pdf/documents for websites?
But I am also interested in Illustrator because for my ensemble, we occasionally create moderate-sized banners as stage design elements, and as lobby displays. I often hired a designer to create some new artwork, do the layout, and prepare the files for printing on a large format printer. It would be nice to have a little more control in the whole process, so I thought I might learn Illustrator, but it seems like InDesign covers some of these tasks... ??
I don't know if I am very much off the mark in the functionality of these two. Both seem very interesting, and both probably useful in both my marketability in the job market and my personal work. But I would probably feel more comfortable become very proficient in one rather than a novice in both. I would take both if many people here find good reason to do so.
Any guidance would be appreciated...There are basically two different kinds of computer graphics: raster-based (arrays of pixels) and vector-based (stacks of mathematically-defined paths).
Web-centric work is overwhelmingly more dependent upon simple raster images.
Several technologies enable the web to deliver vector-based artwork. Websites which do that are generally more sophisticated.
Photoshop (and programs like it) is for creating/editing raster images.
Illustrator (and programs like it) is for creating/editing vector-based graphics.
( By the way, you seem to have overlooked video, which is becoming as ubiquitous a content type as the other two.)
Then, there are programs dedicated to "page assembly"; the work of combining raster artwork, vector artwork, and text into finished whole documents.
InDesign (and programs like it) is primarily for page assembly of documents destined for commercial print.
Dreamweaver is primarily for "page assembly" of web pages.
However:
Programs like InDesign and programs like Illustrator are far more similar than you'll commonly hear from conventional-wisdom. Both so-called "page layout" programs and "vector drawing" programs are what I try to explain as "object based" (not to be confused with the term 'object oriented programming', which is another thing entirely). That is, they both create documents containing stacks and arrangements of individual and independent objects. Those objects can be any combination of text objects, raster objects, and vector objects.
The difference in that regard is this:
Programs like InDesign are almost entirely geared toward assembly of moderate-to-high page-count "bookish" print documents containing long threaded text stories, and repetitive page layouts.
Programs like Illustrator are ostensibly geared toward creation of vector-based artwork. But the truth of the matter is, they are really just as much intended for (and just as frequently used for) whole page design as for standalone illustration.
The vast majority of "page layout" projects are more graphics-intensive than text-intensive, involve low-page count, and less-repetitive page-to-page design. In other words, placement ads, fliers, mailers, brochures, business cards, stationery, etc., etc. The typical freelance illustrator/designer produces far more of these types of projects in a year than the kinds of "bookish" projects which programs like InDesign expedite. And the "dirty little secret" is: It's actually more efficient to build these kinds of common whole-document design projects in a decent so-called "vector drawing" program than in a conventional-wisdom "page layout" program.
Here's The Thing:
The fact is, all of Adobe's core applications (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign) had their beginnings in the days of the desktop-publishing "revolution" of the mid-80s. They are all highly print-oriented. They have all gradually acquired over the intervening decades more "me, too" web-centric features. But the truth is, no one seriously uses Illustrator or InDesign for generating finished web pages. These programs are still primarily rooted in content creation for print. It's just that once you've created a graphic for print, it's a simple thing to dumb it down to re-purpose it for web.
And that's actually a good thing, because…
Here's The Other Thing:
The vast majority of commerical enterprises which buy graphics and design do not only market themselves on the web. Despite decades-old buzzword claims to the contrary, print is very, very far from "dead." And the ugly truth is, when you are creating graphics for a both print and web delivery, it makes far, far more sense to develop for print first, web second. Understand; I said graphics.
Here's The Other Other Thing:
Anyone seriously involved in computer graphics in general (whether for web or print) needs to be at least well-versed and intelligently conversant in all three functions: Raster imaging, vector graphics, and page assemby, and how they relate.
Beyond that, anyone seriously involved in print publishing also needs to be at least conversant in print-centric technicalities. Color separation. Halftoning. Process color versus spot color. Ink on paper. Color correction versus color calibration. The vast majority of print-centric content creation is done in programs like Adobe's core applications. But courses which merely teach how to use a specific graphics software, typically merely touch upon those other very important related technical subjects.
Beyond that, anyone seriously involved in web publishing also needs to be at least conversant in web-centric technologies. Nowadays, basic HTML and CSS is not enough. It's big-yawn, archaic kid-stuff. The days of the dumb, standalone web page are numbered. Nowadays there's client-side scripting (Javascript), server-side scripting (PHP), and database back-ends (SQL) and all of these are becoming ubiquitous, even for fairly modest websites.
Back To The Three Basics
So the "big three" fundamental functions (raster images, vector graphics, page assembly) are just that—fundamental. For the vast majority of basic web use, creation of raster and vector graphics is much less technically demanding than for print. They are really rather mundane, and can be done with programs far less expensive and requiring far less time to learn. There exists a plethora of raster imaging and vector drawing programs. Some good and widely-used ones can be had for free (GIMP, InkScape).
As for web page assembly, Dreamweaver is sort of "last of the dying breed" of WYSIWYG web page layout applications. These factors are at play:
As mentioned above, even modest websites nowadays need data-driven functionality. Making a page clean and attractive is just basic design principles. Meanwhile, let's face it: There's only so many arrangements within the rectangle of a web browser window that make good sense for clean, clear, intuitive, and efficient navigation.
Meanwhile, the average-joe web developer just doesn't have time to continually re-invent the drop-down menu wheel. There won't be anything special or innovative about it anyway (and even if it were, it would be more annoying to users than anything else). He's too busy figuring out the schema of delivering the content. 'I need this kind of data to be organized and accesible by this kind of visitor. I need this particular story to be editable by this particular in-house staffer, who knows nothing about HTML code. My customer needs to be able to routinely upload data refreshes, and he doesn't have time to know web code either.'
Also meanwhile, people have grown weary of continually "upgrading" their WYSIWYG web editor to get a few piecemeal proprietary features, each with its own proprietary interface and learning curve.
So the simple "practicality vaccuum" of it all has given rise to open source server-side WYSIWYG website assembly tool (Joomla, WordPress, etc.) which provide robust SQL data-driven functionality, and do it for free. These kinds of solutions are quickly supplanting the position of traditional web editors like Dreamweaver.
Bottom line:
If I were in your shoes, and really did intend to focus entirely on direction of web-centric advertising, marketing, and graphics, I really woudn't be all that concerned with specifically-Adobe apps anyway. There are scads of web developers out there who never touch a WYSIWYG web page editor. And creating a graphic in GIMP or InkScape is small-potatoes no-brainer. There's no reason to become immersed in Photoshop and Illustrator esoterica for creating individual web images; you can do it with most anything. I'd be focusing on web-centric technology and delivery schema. I'd also want to be conversant in database fundamentals.
On the other hand, if I were in your shoes and intended to focus on art direction of all aspects (web and print) of a company's advertising, marketing, graphics, and information delivery, I would consider it a necessity to be converant (maybe even working-proficient) in programs like Photoshop and Illustrator. InDesign would be somewhat less important unless the business is publishing "bookish" or "magazine-like" documents.

My mom put my ipod 5th gen in the house somewhere and it was turned off. It is connected to the internet in the house. How do i turn it on with the Findmyiphone or something else? It was an expensive gift and we can't find it now! Please help! How do i turn it on without finding it because she can't remember where it was.
That is so dumb...Apple is the best and most techinological company IN THE WORLD and they don't have the time to invent something like that? HUH? All they are worried about is making the "Worlds best Phone" and they can't take the time out to help their users or anybody that has their products. All they have is "Find mt Iphone" Well they should step up and do something else to help people like me out. Find a way to turn it on and you can find it or find a way to turn it on remotely.

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

Every time I sign in, it signs me out immediately. I've tried deleting the opm file and it's unable to do so because "Adobe CC is currently running this file." I've also changed my LAN settings and downloaded something else that was supposed to help me out but nothing seems to fix the problem.
I think you'll find that the official Adobe advice here is misguided. First, deleting bits of the program and program data is, as you've noted, perilous and often impossible. Shame on Adobe for doing such a poor job of coding that such steps are needed.
The solution I recommend is as follows:
Restart your Windows machine and boot in "Safe Mode" with networking using the F8 key just as Windows starts.
Go to the Control Panel and select Programs. Find and Uninstall "Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop".
Reinstall it by downloading it from the website https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud
Restart your machine.
Only in "Safe Mode" are you likely to be able to accomplish these tasks reliably. -
I don't know if this is a Firefox problem so I ask, When printing how come it always prints so small I nearly need a magnifying glass? Is this caused by something else I may have set incorrectly? help please, from a very satisfied Firefox user
This only happens when I'm in my browser. Ex. when I'm on a site and I decide I like what I see and want to print it text that is, my printer always prints tiny. When I'm in Microsoft Word for ex. I print it and it looks like what I expect. So I don't know if somehow my printer got set to print tiny when on the web. If you can help me I would be most appreciative. Thanks again for your response.

Colour Profiles missing in InDesign and Illustrator CS3
Adobe CS3
Mac 10.5.8
Hi, I recently brought a new HP Printer (HP Photosmart B110) and installed the software for for it and all the colour profiles for the papers were visible in the drop down box (they were HP Premium Photo, HP Advance and HP Premium Plus Photo) but after updating the drivers they all vanished (see image for InDesign and Illustrator examples).
I contacted HP and uninstalled all the HP software as well as deleting HP related files and then reinstalled the software again but the Colour Profiles were still not visible. I have contacted HP again and they have said that it's something to do with my Adobe software so I was wondering if anyone can help me with solving this problem?
Thanks
ChrisHP is fond of pointing the finger at Adobe, and in fairness their drivers often don't work well with InDesign (HP printers account for the largest number of printer related problems on the forum by far, and I don't think it's just due to market share), but installing color profiles has NOTHING to do with any Adobe software. If the profiles were being installed properly by the HP installer, they's be in the system someplace (probably the colorsynch folder) and they'd be available to other programs even if Adobe apps didn't find them.
If the HP low-level tech feeds you that "it's an Adobe problem" BS again, immediately ask to be escalated to someone who knows what they are talking about, and take names. -
Indesign and Illustrator CS5.5 crash on launch?
Hi, since few days my Indesign and Illustrator (CS5.5 on OSX Lion) keep on crashing while launching. I de-installed and re-installed the entire CS5 Suite on my iMac already couple of times, but nothing changes. First I thought it might be a font problem, so I deleted all user fonts, but sadly this also didnt help. I already rang the Adobe tech support line but they are not very helpful at all... very frustrating. Anybody an idea what else I can do?
Everytime I try to launch Indesign or Illustrator CS5.5 they start launching but then crash during launch with the comment "Programme quit unexpectedly". Strange thing is that Photoshop and all other CS5.5 Design Premium components are launching and working fine. I am working on the iMac 2.5GHz quad-core Intel Core i5 with 6MB with OSX Lion.

10.4.6 + InDesign CS2 = Total Disaster. PLEASE HELP.
After installing 10.4.6 my Adobe InDesign CS2 no longer works. It crashes every time I start it up. I've repaired permissions, cleared caches and troubleshooted the system fonts folder. No luck. PLEASE HELP. I'm missing deadlines, losing money and sweating bullets.
I can't believe Apple wouldn't test this update on all Adobe Design Apps and end up alienating their core audience. Shocking.
Any advice or fix for this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
G5 Dual Core 2.3 Mac OS X (10.4.6)The one thing you should have done was create a clone of your system hard drive on a firewire external disk, then you could have booted from that and kept working then returned to deal with the 10.4.6 problems later when deadlines aren't looming. Remember that for next time.
There should be no problem running IDCS2 in 10.4.6, something else is wrong. Get Disk Warrior and run repairs.
If necessary do an Archive and Install of Tiger, then a full update to 10.4.6 (Repairing Permissions before and after everything), then reinstall InDesign (test InDesign after the Archive and Install first, it might be fixed just from that). This is practically a sure thing so if deadlines are getting tight you might just want to go right for this instead of messing around with other fixes first.
And whatever you do get an external firewire drive and SuperDuper! and make a clone of your drive so everything is backed up and you always have a fail-safe system to fall back on. -
Cannot see inDesign and illustrator in CS6 Design Standard
Hi,
I have installed CS Design Standard which is supposed to include inDesign and Illustrator.
However , I cannot see them from the Start menu.
Software has been installed with correct license , so how to I get to access them ?
ThanksHi Mylenium,
I am going to download the CD from my Adobe account.
Someone else gave me the CD , and I reckon it is the wrong one.
Thanks for your help.
If this does not fix the issue , I will put a new post on this forum.

I'm not sure if this is F# specific or something else, but what could cause the following error message when trying to debug locally an Azure cloud service:
The Web Role in question doesn't seem to be a web application type project.
I added an empty F# web api Project to a solution (which adds Global.asax etc., I added an OWIN startup class Startup etc.) and then from an existing
cloud service project I picked Roles and
chose Add
-> Web Role Project in solution, which finds the F# web project (its project type guids are 349C5851-65DF-11DA-9384-00065B846F21 and F2A71F9B-5D33-465A-A702-920D77279786),
of which the first one seem to be exactly the GUID that defines a web application type.
However, when I try to start the cloud project locally, I get the aforementioned error message. I have a C# Web Role project that will start when I remove the F# project. I also have F# worker
role projects that start with the C# web role project if I remove this F# web role project. If I set the F# web project as a startup project,
it starts and runs as one would expect, normally.
Now, it makes me wonder if this is something with F# or could this error message appears in C# too, but I didn't find anything on Google. What kind of checks are there when starting the emulator and which one needs
failing to prompt the aforementioned message? Can anyone shed light into this?
Sudet ulvovat -- karavaani kulkeeSudet,
Yeah you are right, the GUID mentioned seems to be correct and the first one i.e. {349C5851-65DF-11DA-9384-00065B846F21} means the web application project which compute emulator uses to determine while spawning up role instances.
You might want to compare the csproj of your C# and F# web projects which might give some pointers.
Are you able to run your F# web project locally in IIS? If yes then you will definitely be able to run it on azure so I will recommend to test it in IIS Express first.
Here are some other tips which you can refer or see If you are yet to do those settings
1. Turn on the IIS Express - You can do it by navigating to project properties
2. Install Dependent ASP.NET NuGets / Web Api dependencies (If there are any missing), Reference System.Web assembly
Also I will suggest to refer this nice article about how to create a F# web Api project

I just got iphone 5c and i am not happy with it. It uses to much data and i don't even know how. I can't get the ringtones i want for my contacts.I got it on my free upgrade but i want to take it back and get something else but where i got it they say i can't because i don't have the earbuds and i have serches or them. now i am suck with a phone i don't like at all until my next upgrade. this is very dishearten
1. If you are this unhappy with that phone, and the lost earbuds is the only thing stopping you from taking it back, why do not just buy some earbuds. That way you can get rid of that phone. It all depend upon how much you want to get rid of that phone.
2. Yet if you are stuck with that iPhone, here is something might help you to control the data usage. By design, iPhones do turn off WiFi when they go dormant. So if a download is in progress and so forth when the phone goes dormant, it will switch to use cellular data, if this setting is left on. Therefore, from multi-sources I have learned that if you keep your iPhone connected to a power source, then it will stay connected to the available WiFi. -
The only thing I did was get down to 5GB HDD space, had a half-import, & something else
By that I mean here's what I got:
Both Libraries are the same path....
As in the title, I was/am running out of HDD drive space, I recently (and last time) had my last iPhone (IOS 7.*.*) iPhoto import go snafu (for first time between this MBP and 3 other iphones....ever), and I think I did something else like at the least a CHECKSUM or VERIFIED or REPAIRED permissions which seemed to make some other stuff squirlley.
Anyway, I have a mid-late 2010 (OCT) 7,1 MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo running Mac OS X Version 10.7.5 with 8 GM 1067 MHz DDR3 RAM and a 250GB 2.5" startup disk
*******I have a 1TB SSD/HDD here waiting to replace my boot drive, with the adapter kit from OWC and all, but want to back up all my stuf and make it reduntant a few times first. Problem is I have 1000 great photos since our snowfall here in the NE and don't to lose them and the ones of my daughter and baby daughter.
Any help is much appreciated.
Best Regards,
GJSorry but I do not even know what your question is
as a side note you must always have a minimum of 10GB of free space on your hard drive and more is better
If your photos are on your iphone then backup to iCloud in case of issues
I you could post a simple question with only the revelant context it would be good

Black macbook: not sure if its the fan, or something else (noise)
I got this macbook is september. I had no issues with it, when suddenly it began making noises. Now, I'm a gadget-blog reader, so I've been aware of Macbooks making the "moooo" sound from the fan; however, I'm not sure if my noise is the fan or something else. I get more of a "whrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" noise.
1) I have the macbook plugged in
2) I leave it on all the time
3) It began to hear the "whrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" when:
a) activate visualizer in iTUNES
b) download shows off iTUNES
c) have a bunch of windows open and the 512MB Memory is struggling to access each window, if I say, I want to close them.
Considering this is the uncrashable, flexible, awesome OSX, and should be pesk-free, like say WINXP...I would expect such problems to not exist on the glossy OSX.
I'm currently studying abroad in the United Kingdom. I bought this macbook in San Francisco just before I left. I have plenty of warranty left. Is this a big issue? It annoys the **** out of me. None of the macbooks demoed in the store had this problem. So in a way, this is false advertising, since I'm reading that a lot of people have this noise issue.
I've fully updated my firmwares with software updater, but I still get the noise. So I'm at situation that needs some outside help as to what I should do.
Thanks.hard to say if it is serious or not. have you tried resetting the pmu? http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303319 that could very well help the matter.

Color Separations in InDesign and Illustrator
I am trying to print spot color separations. In both InDesign and Illustrator the "separations" is gray. I can only print RGB and grayscale.
My colors are set up as spot. I even tried to print from Acrobat and "separations" is gray there also. Do I need to re-install my drivers or the programs.
I am trying to print to postscript printers but neither one lets me select separations.
