THIS SERIES...
Will give you experience of working from a variety of InDesign templates
Will give you skills and confidence to create a variety of work from scratch
Will give you an insight into the design process
Will give you confidence to send your finished work to a printer
Whether you’re a designer who needs to boost their confidence with InDesign, a professional marketer who knows about branding but nothing about InDesign or a complete beginner looking to develop an awareness of the design world and some InDesign skills, these books are written for you.
In Creating Leaflets with InDesign, designer and trainer Peter Bone shows you how to create the five documents that you can see displayed in Customer Images (above this text). In an attempt to mirror a typical design project, the templates, images and text are provided for you to import. As you work through the book, creating increasingly complex documents, the skills and approaches you learn will build upon each other and you'll discover that your use of InDesign becomes increasingly intuitive.
YOU'LL LEARN:
How to create five increasingly complex leaflets from scratch with InDesign: single sided, double sided, four page and concertina (or z fold) leaflets.
How to use margins, columns, ruler guides, and the baseline grid to help you align elements accurately and learn when and how to allow for bleed.
How to import and resize logos, maps and photographic images, create a montage of images and learn how to make text wrap around images automatically.
How to place text across multiple pages, adjust its formatting and create and apply Paragraph and Character styles.
There are also some brief notes giving you an overview of InDesign, an understanding of how other programs are used with it, and some essential technical information on vector and bitmap images, resolution, bleeds and creating pdfs.
FURTHER INFORMATION
Featuring 5 exercises and containing nearly 15000 words and 200 images, this book should take between 4-6 hours to work through. The learning curve in this book is quite steep, and so is more suitable for intermediate users than beginners.
