I just landed a job where I have to make a catalog, like for pro-active. 10 pages or so with pictures and some type. pretty basic. I'm really comfortable using photoshop, but a novice at illustrator.
My question is, what program should i use to build this catalog of pharmaceutical products?

There is absolutely no reason for me to post this, as what I am about to say has been said here already, but I feel an overwhelming need to chime in still. You aren't qualified to create a 10-page brochure if you are only comfortable in Photoshop, a novice with Illustrator and unaware of InDesign. Like plash said, "wish ya luck and don't screw it up."

haha, its ok. I'm never on here anyway.
I thought it was funny that you were breaking my balls a little. I didn't think it wasn't fair. I think its crazy fortunate for me to have this opportunity and i am not taking it lightly.
Thanks for the tips and i'll probably call you for some help.- are you working with Joelle?monospaced
- No, its just me and Aja. She's the creative director on this.fuqhu

To be fair, InDesign takes about a day to learn. It's not a complicated program, at all.
GREP expressions are pretty challenging, but that's just because the syntax sucks. And most people don't need them anyway.
