Objectives:

Introduce Adobe InDesign Basics: Getting started with the InDesign workspace, setting up documents, adjusting the application preferences to meet your workflow needs, working with text and image frames, columns and margins to organize your layout, and familiarizing and use toolbar and type.

Workspace overview

You create and manipulate your documents and files using various elements, such as panels, bars, and windows. Any arrangement of these elements is called a workspace. The workspaces of the different applications in Adobe Creative Suiteshare the same appearance so that you can move between the applications easily. You can also adapt each application to the way you work by selecting from several preset workspaces or by creating one of your own.

Although the default workspace layout varies in different products, you manipulate the elements much the same way in all of them.

Design Problem:

Create a single page format for recipes that could be used in a cookbook.

Requirements:

Create three different compositions with three different recipes, arrange each composition to use the grid the student established in a unique manner. Explore the use of a multi column grid. See the examples in the module Assignment 1 examples. PDF
