today we'll be looking at using adobe indesign
to generate print ready brochures
in this graphic design tutorial
what is that people hope you were doing
great today I'd be really busy the task
week cranking out graphic design as well
as making six videos per week for you
guys this week I have a lot coming up
ranging from heavier more advanced adobe
illustrator tutorials to type face from
hong tips a photoshop tutorial graphic
design as a courier have much much more
to subscribe to stay updated all of my
uploads we're looking today at a single
sheet brochures in Adobe InDesign you'll
be creating files to both bifold brochures and
trifold brochures the two most common
single sheet brochures that you were
going to encounter adobe indesign is
probably the most commonly used program
for generating print really brochures
and other editorial print artwork in
graphic design so firstly we're going to
tackle the bi fold brochure in Adobe
InDesign I refers to two and this is
where a single sheet of paper or pre
material is folded in half to create two
sections can design the ibook they're
only in Adobe InDesign or you can design
in photoshop illustrator and then
transfer over to InDesign after I prefer
to do the latter well I've never had
issues of this with clients or print
projects in the past I simply prefer
using the tools illustrator or Photoshop
to create the outer artwork itself if
the client wants a bipod brochure and
uses for example an a4 piece of paper
folded in half we need to set up the are
worth of money in Photoshop Illustrator
to the size of an a4 piece of paper
landscape first three millimeters to
bleed on each side so while I personally
do is generate an airport bus from it in
Photoshop at 300ppi / guide along the
edges and then the larger canvas by six
millimeters on each direction the bleed
is necessary and most printing agencies
will run with three millimeters bleed as
standard so we're just my idea to ask
that before you send in the printing
project
do we want to put a guide halfway along
the canvas to standing as the fold of
the brochure between the canvas into two
piles if you look at the brochure you
essentially have two pieces of paper
with for sanctions in total still in the
back and turn a friend if we were
designing our work in Photoshop
Illustrator to be transferred to
InDesign after we want to create two
separate for documents to finish up
illustrator as they're splinting two
sides once you've designed our work you
can have flattened and save as a JPEG
now in Adobe InDesign you want to create
document the size of an a4a landscape
with two boards and a three minute we
need to bleed around the edges
create a box covers the bleeds as well
as the entire board and the place you
design onto the outward know when it's
ready to be exported for prints remember
to contact a printing agency find out
what file format they require it's most
likely going to be PDF but into never
host asked
for the trifold brochure do the exact
same process in Photoshop Illustrator or
even completely in design if you want to
but instead of splitting up the two
sections split up to the three equal
areas remember I make two sides and then
transfer it in design so let me know if
