Topics

NEW: Multiple page publication

We first need the text for printed publication: PRICELESS
Each one of us will provide a short original story.

Please refer to Class 9 for examples. If you are yet to do. SEND TEXT NOW.

We will create a small publication, and will handle a larger amount of linked body copy. This will include headings and paragraphs.

We will start designing a SAMPLE page once we have all the copy available today.

Create a document 5.5 x 8.5 with 3 pages.

The margins are up to you. Usually a little bigger at the bottom.

Decisions regarding margins vary. Sometimes these depend on the number of pages and binding.

DRAFT TEXT is here to download and use during class

These are examples of a left (verso) and right (recto) spread.

Creating Sample Pages with the longest of every element
We do this by first evaluating the manuscript. WHY?

Take note of all typographical elements that you encounter as you look at all the pages of the text.

Select the longest (in quantity/actual characters):

The longest title

The longest name

The longest story

Once you have selected these. Then you are ready to design your sample pages

Choose typography: Title, name, narrative (body copy)

Consider text transitions (start of text).
