FAQs Archive • Bob Levine Design and Consulting

Q: Do you offer consulting/training on older Creative Suite software?

Unless you require help in moving to current versions of Creative Cloud software, no. It’s just not worth the effort to keep older versions of software at hand and try to remember which features were available.

Q: I was looking for info on older Adobe software versions. What happened?

This site was recently re-done. In the process, a lot of older, irrelevant content was eliminated. I apologize for any inconvenience but migrating information about 5-10 year old software didn’t seem worth the effort. Feel free to send me a message using the contact form if you have a particular question.

Q: Didn't you used to be The InDesign Guy?

I still am, but I’m so much more and it made a lot of sense to have my URL reflect that. I suppose a bit of history is in order. Back when InDesign was just getting its feet wet, most creative pros were using QuarkXPress. I moved to InDesign at version 1.0 and never looked back after version 1.5 was released. I’ve been recommending it to clients ever since and with all my pestering, some of them started calling me “The InDesign Guy.” But time marches on and InDesign is only a small part of what happens here. I’m a big WordPress user and not only design sites using it, but also offer training and consulting with it. I hope that clears it up.

Q: Do you do production work?

Of course I do. In fact, I take great pride in my production skills. Just provide me with the job specifications and I’ll do the rest.

Q: Do you provide web hosting?

Any domains and hosting should be in your name. That is for your benefit and protection. If you don’t already have a hosting account, I’ll be happy to get you set up with one. I recommend SiteGround . Fabulous support and very good pricing. If you’re not happy with your current host, assistance with migrating your site is available.

Q: Do you offer printing services?

No, but I do work with several printers. I’ll be happy to coordinate printing as part of a design project or refer you to one.

Q: Will you travel for on-site consulting?

Yes, I’m happy to travel to your site. Depending on where you’re located, you would be responsible for any travel, lodging, and meal expenses but I don’t have very expensive taste in food and will fly coach.

Q: Do you offer remote consulting and training?

The short answer to this is yes, but it really does depend on your needs. If you’re just running into a few issues working on an InDesign project, we can probably get to the bottom of it with a screen sharing session. On the other hand, if you need a full evaluation of your workflow, that would best be done onsite. In either case, I’d be happy to discuss it. Contact me to get started.
