  1. It’s not recommended for starters. Adobe-standard interface sports a small toolbar and a mishmash of tabbed palettes in small type that only a user with excellent eyesight could love. You can nest palettes together, dock them on the side of the display, and add keyboard shortcuts for some functions, but that’s about it. If you’re familiar with other Adobe products, such as Illustrator and Photoshop, you should find the interface comfortable and familiar.

  2. I am trying to print a double sided booklet and when i do print it, it is not centered on the sheet of paper therefore everything does not line up at all when I fold it. What am I doing wrong? I have tried to print this document on more than one printer and that same thing happens every time. Grrr!!!
