Our newsletter's nameplate will span the top of the cover page, and include the date and some issue information. A nameplate may appear anywhere on a cover page, but most designs incorporate the nameplate across the top. Often, the nameplate also contains a logo and the date of publication. It should include the name of the publication and issue number information. As such, it uniquely identifies a publication and should span a large area across the cover page. The nameplate can be otherwise called a title. The nameplate is the most important visual object of any publication. This feature of a publication is the nameplate. Since we can create a custom space for our text, we want to add one large frame for the publication's name, which will extend across the columns. Although we have already divided our page into a three-column substructure, our design is not limited to the three columns we can simply add some frames if we want to place our objects in custom spaces and shapes. A frame is simply a container for text or graphic objects. Working with FramesĪll text that appears in documents created with InDesign must be located within text boxes, or frames. In using InDesign's typographic controls, our primary goal is to maximize the impact of the publication while minimizing the reader's distraction when reading it. Most people do not specifically notice good typography however, bad typography is easy to spot.
If our publication's type is difficult to read or doesn't aesthetically fit the tone of the publication, the intended message is not adequately conveyed. The design of our newsletter should communicate this message as clearly as possible. In our case, we are trying to present to educators of all classroom levels interesting articles about the use of technology in the classroom. Making Typographic DecisionsĪ publication needs to convey a message to a target audience.
It is important to understand some fundamentals of good typography and point out a few issues about text in a publication. Before we start adding text to our newsletter, we need to consider some important aspects about typography, which is the art and science of type. In most cases, the use of text is a primary mode of communication.
