Eleni-6-7 Spread
Hey everyone! I'm still messing around with the postal parts what not, but I wanted to get your opinions on my 6-7 spread so far. Let me know what you guys think or if I should change anything. Thanks!
1. Bulleted lists need to sit a bit differently. The second lines, under the bullets, need to be indented so that the bullets sit out all by themselves. The easiest way to do this is to use InDesign’s pre-made bulleted lists (found up on the Control Panel when in text tool). But you can also do this using the indent mechanisms or the Tab dialogue box).
2. Infographic – the middle one seems to lack the same bold emphasis on the numbers I see in the other two. Can you rewrite it in such a way as to be consistent with other two?
3. Page 7 folio will be in your way – delete it (command/shift click and pull it down off page).
4. Leading between lines at top of page 7 needs attention, so that all 4 lines appear to be one thought (currently, there are 2 elements separated by too much neg space).
Eleni, here are some thoughts:
