On April 24, 2008 C2 co-owner Jim Conway traveled to New York City to present to the InDesign User Group at the Fashion Institute of Technology.

Jim gave an introduction to web design for print designers. By showing direct parallels between designing for print and designing for the web, Jim helped demystify web layout for many in the group.

Toward the end of his presentation, he paid special attention to the current problems of migrating an InDesign layout directly to the web using Adobe’s existing cross-media technology.
