What you'll learn
In this series of lessons, we will focus on Creating a Tri-fold Brochure in InDesign. We'll begin the process by learning the best way to setup our file and organize individual page into spreads. While doing this we'll learn how to incorporate multiple page sizes into the same InDesign document. Next, we'll build a framework to hang our content on in the form of a modular grid. From there, we'll learn how to bring in and work with both image and text content for our layout. In order to make managing our text easier, we'll learn how to create both character and paragraph styles. To wrap things up we'll learn how to export a .PDF and package all related files into one singular location. Software required: InDesign CS5, Microsoft Word 2002.
