Research and planning:indesign and tutorial


This is my first time of using indesign. Whilst using this programme I created this document. I learnt how to:

  • Change the background colour by selecting the shape tool and drawing a rectangular box the same size as the page and then selecting a colour. 
  • Use the text tool to create a title for my document, and change the size and shape of it. 
  • Put my text into columns by creating guides for my text, I then selected my text by clicking 'place' and then going into my folder, it was then on my mouse so all I had to do was draw where i wanted the text (inside the guides I had drawn).
  • I then selected my picture by also using the 'place' button.
  • Put the number in the bottom corner of my document by using the text tool and then placed a border around that and my whole piece of work by making the boxes thicker.
  • Use the gradient effect tool to gradually make the background colour white.
