This has been my primary resource for learning DPS. It's the best I've seen. The design could use some improvement. Some of the user interface interaction is kind of clunky, and the generic nature photos paired with what appears to be Lucida Calligraphy font probably wasn't the right choice to open with. Still, it was free and fairly easy to follow, so I give it 4 stars.
For those of us that are visual learners, this app does a great job of teaching us the basics about creating interactive content for tablet devices through Adobe InDesign 5.5. You may notice that the authors do not use overly complicated examples in presenting this information. The point is to teach you how to use these features, thus equipping you to do the amazing part of applying them in creative ways. Great job!
After spending a week using digital publishing suite unable to find documentation on how to do the things I wanted to do in a digital publication I came across this and it's filled in all the missing blanks to my questions on the capabilities of DPS. Why Adobe doesn't have this on their websites will never understand. This app is a must for anyone who is using DPS!
I teach Digital Publishing at the college level and this App is by far the best reference my sudents have for developing their skills. The structure of this App is such that anyone can easily learn all the basic skills needed to start with a good foundation in Digital Publishing. I just wish all of my text books could be this functional, engaging and thorough!
A very useful resource. I'm just not sure if its my lack of understanding, or that some of the steps are missing in the guides. Noticed this especially in "advanced overlays".
I recommend this app to anyone who is getting started with publishing Newsstand, Multi-Issue or Single Edition apps using InDesign and Adobe DPS. The authors keep it updated based on new functionality, and you can actually interact with the app to see the features in action.
Really helpful tips and explainers on how to get the most out of the digital publishing suite. I found techniques in here that I couldn't find easily via Google searches as well as things I wouldn't have thought of. Thanks for making this free.
I've had this app sitting on my iPad for a while and I went to cleaning up some apps making room for new ones. So I open this app and it gave me my incite on building my portfolio both digital and printable. I also will use it to mirror a layout for my blog also.
There's nothing to compare to this. Sure, you can spend time on a tutorial site, and watch videos. But I like having a quick reference like this right on the platform that I'm developing for.
Downloaded this as a resource/reference for a class I'm taking on Digital Publishing workflow. I'm on the first couple of pages and so far great examples and in-app demos of features while they are being explained.
I especially appreciate how the sections are regularly updated as new features and upgrades come online. Even if you know how to use DPS, it's worth following to stay up to date.

I recently graduated as a web and digital graphic design and I love this app because it helps me on how to create slideshows and what to use and how to do great layouts. Looking forward for more tips and effects to come!
This has got to be the best source for how to use DPS. I use it in class as the main tool for students to learn Adobe InDesign DPS great updates. Provide timely information that's always updated.
Bob Bringhurst's DPS Tips is a must read and reference for anyone working with Adobe's Digital Publishing Suite. Not only is it free, but the information is updated frequently with changes in the technology. Thank you Bob!
I absolutely know the great quality of this app and how it is supposed to work. I downloaded the recent version and it keeps crashing on me. iPhone 4, iOS 5.1.1
