Adobe InDesign is typically used to create print-friendly designs. It can be used to make flyers, forms, and organization-specific letterhead pages. Letterhead pages for a specific organization typically have the organization's name, logo, and contact information on them and can be used to make official statements or send out official organization-related information to affiliated parties. Learning how to make these pages is a useful skill to take into many job fields, but especially public relations, as organizations are constantly making statements, and their public relations teams are typically the ones drafting these statements (to be read in-person or uploaded to social media accounts). To first get us familiar with the tools and functions on InDesign, we created a fake newspaper cover. We then created a letterhead page for the fictitious company we created (first mentioned in the Illustrator unit).
We first created a sample newspaper cover on InDesign to get us familiar with its functions (text boxes, fonts, columns, spacing, etc.).
Sample letterhead page for my fake travel company. The page has the company's name, logo, and contact information. The page also has a semi-transparent watermark in the middle of the page to add a little extra flair.
