Basic tutorials to aid getting to grips with the basics of Indesign
Well-known member

Having used Indesign many years ago I now have a need to get to grips with it again. I don't need to go down to any great depth, just the basics that would allow me to put together a simple booklet of text and graphics. Free or cheap ideal, but main thing is ease of following and minimal waffle. Videos often are often more about the author than the tuition!
Adobe Learn is an example of something that meets my needs and I like but it is out of date.
Any suggestions please?
