Page layout and Design

By Edward Gill

Step 1

In this step I created three columns that would split up my text that I inserted later on.

Step 2

In step two you can see that I inserted a grid which is 3by 3. I did this so that I could break my page up, resulting in my work becoming more organised. I made sure that when inserting my grid I clicked “fit to margins” so that my guides would be even within my workspace.

Step 3

In this step I inserted a frame for where my image would be placed.

Step 4

In this step I inserted my image of the Empire State Building into the rectangular frame that is on the design. I did this by originally starting off in Photoshop, where I made sure the size of the image would be the same size of the picture frame on my design page. I then placed the image into in-design.

Step 5

For step 5 I collected some random text of the Internet and placed it within the text box on my design page. As you can see in the image to the left, the text goes over the image I inserted earlier.

Step 6

Step 6 is where I text wrapped my text around my image.

Step 7

For step 7 I inserted a drop capital, this was because it is a useful tool to draw the eye to the start of the text

Step 8

In this step I inserted a frame for where the title will be positioned.

Step 9

For this step I chose a font for my title and inserted the words into the frame I already placed.

Step 10

Step 10 is my finished overall design and layout I created.
