I am an absolute newbie to Adobe Premier 6.0. I have 2 questions:

1. Can anyone recommend any decent books that will help me get to grips with using this application?

2. Is it possible in Adobe Premier 6.0 to open existing DVD film footage, edit it, amend/create menus and then re-save it in a DVD format to enable it to be ripped back to DVD? If so, I'd be really grateful if you could explain step-by-step how I can do this.

Many thanks.
