What tutorials to learn how to create a product brochure would you recommend?

I am a beginner on Adobe InDesign CS6 and have just received my first job marketing focused on the creation of brochures on products, I need to work through a few tutorials to get me to the speed, I have a knowledge base of Adobe InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop, but I need to be competent in these programs to create products brochures/magazines at a high level.

Well, there are two parts to your learning here.

1 learn the tools. He is professional, serious and baffling if you try just to dive. Even worse, if dive you in you will certainly make mistakes, work hard for yourself and may need to eventually redo work or work of very poor quality. A classic example of what happens when diving: I've heard of someone who has done the office using Photoshop forms. But a subtler mistake is to use InDesign and manually change the fonts instead of setting styles.

2. If you bought a really good set of Carpenter tools you still wouldn't do a very good Cabinet. This isn't just about the tools, but about graphic design, a mix of art and craft. If you're lucky, you have an eye for these work and can recognize evil works around us for what it is - for example, maybe you can see where there is not enough white space, where there is bad composition of images, where the page is unbalanced, the text too tight or too loose, and essentially the job does not work well. Even those who have an eye for this can benefit studying graphic design, but if you don't have the artistic eye, you will need intensive studies before you can make brochures to a high standard. Generally, it is a course of several years full time.

  • Update Windows shows about 100 updates important to apply. How would you recommend I do. I'm afraid to apply the patches to 100 at a time. Those who would be safer to start with? Thank you

    The manufacturer has replaced the HD on my computer laptop 64 bit Windows 7.  Update Windows shows about 100 updates important to apply.  I can't find patches that I had previously applied in the list of applied hotfixes or patches to apply list.  I don't understand why this is.  How would you recommend I do.  I'm afraid to apply the patches to 100 at a time.  Those who would be safer to start with?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I suggest you only begin to install the important updates (recommended) first and later if you want you can install optional updates. All Windows update are safe to install and it is important to install the update and recommended by Microsoft. It keeps your computer safer and your software current to date and if you want Windows to install important updates as they become available, turn on automatic updating. Important updates provide significant benefits, such as improved security and reliability. You can also set Windows to automatically install recommended updates, which can address non-critical problems and help enhance your computing experience. Optional updates are not downloaded or installed automatically.

  • What should I learn how to make a sensitive site?

    Hiya

    Have not registered here for a few years.

    15 years ago or about, I learned HTML4 (from book of Castro) and manually coded a Web site. I managed to create a CSS page.   Whoopee!
    Then I got DW4 and later a update. and that's SWELL.  And there is my level.  I'm not sharp, that I am?

    These days, I maintain a site for friends, and they want to upgrade.  Half an hour on Google tells me the term 'sensitive '.  Looks like there's gotta be good w/CSS and HTML5.

    First question, is an update of DW, or any other WYSIWYG program that will convert an existing more responsive site, or build a more or less the way DW does the HTML4 those?

    Second question, if there is not, what is the list of things I need to learn to reboot myself?  And any suggestion for where and how?  Remember what's my level?

    Thank you

    Responsive Web Design (RWD) has some limitations.  Honestly, some just Web designers cannot do because they are not ready to give up the old school tables and/or to compromise on their design ideas.  But if approach you the question with an open mind and not try to build what anyone too fancy or restrictive, RWD can be very rewarding.

    Consider your mobile users first.  They interact with their devices differently from desktop users.  For example, mobile users have less content and more large, tactile, menu buttons and forms.  There are volumes written about it on the web.  Spend time in the learning of theory, but also the code before you plunge your first project RWD.

  • What font would you recommend for a University newspaper?

    I created a new design for my University newspaper. What font do you recommend, and what style exactly?

    I would be happy to know your opinion and maybe even some still useful advice, since this is the first time I'm designing of a newspaper (I use InDesign CS3)

    Thank you

    Tom

    But seriously. For a newspaper, I would avoid without font ("Arial", Helvetica, universe, myriad). Why not try some of the rich classics? A few of them come on the InDesign DVD, but I don't know which. Minion Pro is a very nice, but perhaps too modern. Try Jenson Pro, Caslon Pro or Adobe Garamond Pro. The 'Pro' means that these fonts have extended features, such as the former graphic ornaments (very pretty when used in the proper context!), style old numbering and true small capitals.

    Use a classic police will be your journal gives a very high class look. For a large page, you can use columns of three (or four); even on a smaller size of the page, two columns look better than one. It also gives you the advantage of having guidelines for one, one-and-a-half, two or even three images wide column and headlines. Try to go to a fully justified text; tinkering with hyphenation settings until it looks right (I think that default ID parameters are okay for the fairly narrow columns). Use a lot of spacing; This guy don't like being cramped.

    Use small caps to the recurring titles such as "CALENDAR"; 'FORUM '. 'LETTERS '. "EDITORIAL". Good headlines, you have the choice of what whether normal type (in a really huge size) bold or italic. Focus on columns for that look of the 18th century

    Whatever you do, don't run amok with different fonts! Use a font exclusively for texts 'main '; Use it in a smaller size for the "lesser" texts, such as the photo captions, tables or 'notes '. Don't let someone tell you about in screaming headlines! ; Once you decide on a design, stick and defend when necessary.

  • What software to a workstation HP Z230 would you recommend?

    I just bought a new Hewlett Packard Z230 Workstation with the intent to catch up on a big backlog (of the hundreds of hours) of family videos, I want to clean up and change.  This computer is configured as follows:

    Intel I7 4770 Quad Core 3.4 GHz (showing 8 processors in control panel/system/processor) current execution

    16 GB of ram

    C: drive of 256 GB SSD

    3 to 7 200 RPM drive D:

    video card nVidia Quadro K2000 with 2 GB of video ram

    Windows 7 Pro 64-bit

    When I bought this, I had planned on using Cyberlink PowerDirector because they announced that it works well with the features of this computer.  I downloaded a trial version of Power Director, and it satisfied my functional needs.  But he locked up three times in an hour.  When I wrote Cyberlink, they have asked for information like the DxDiag.txt file that describes my computer and blocks Windows event logs.  Their response was BAFFLING, because they said that they design their software to "level of consumer platforms", and since they test their software on "workstations", they may not recommend my use on the Z230.

    That said, I'm now looking for other software.  I used Pinnacle a lot in the past, but it has changed so much since the version I used, I'm not married to any brand at this stage.  In addition to the usual editing capability, I want to check that the software that I buy has specific abilities, I need:

    -Ability to video clips of cultures and expand others cropped 16:9 scene (because I have a few incroachment in video excerpts from the hood of the lens of a camera).

    -Ability to normalize audio levels of the different clips (some too loud or too quiet) before producing the video.

    -You want, don't not required: ability to burn DVDs or DVD on a computer other than the one where I'm editing.

    More, if not all, editing software has these capabilities now (PowerDirector and Pinnacle do), so this shouldn't be a problem, but I just want to check.

    Any help or advice would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Terry,

    Sounds like a ton of frustration!

    My comments:

    • You say you have hundreds hours of videos of family; you need a professional level solution, or you will simply be driven crazy!
    • I suggest to buy Premiere Pro CS6 (expensive but permanent license) or the first Pro CC rental (monthly subscription model). These two fully use your hardware (processor, memory, GPU and whole disks) for the best possible, editing experience - I highly recommend to choose one of the two options and do not look back. With many hours of video, you want to have a platform which publishes fine without having to make each scenario over and over again just for reading and gently rub.

      [sidebar: I do not work for Adobe, I don't do that professionally and I made photo and video editing as a consumer for more than 30 years well.] Announcement over these years, I had the chance to try a lot of different hardware and software solutions (well Yes, Panasonic / Sony bridge-to-bridge linear edition on hardware Hi8, VHS, SVHS, then Pinnacle and assisted Matrox solutions PC (signs $ 1000 added to the PC to handle DV and SD non-linear editing formats) [and for the last decade, using Pinnacle Avid Liquid / / first / only Vegas software solutions])

    • Your system is pretty solid, except for the video card (empty the Quadro and get a 2 GB card NVidia GTX 770). Add a matching 3 TB HD and make a record of 2 x RAID 0 set would give you much more speed and ability too in the field of training and is an upgrade I would propose as well. You don't have a lot of video indeed!

    You absolutely must talk about what your media here to get the best advice.  Are you using editing AVCHD, DV, Hi8, etc. ? It is very important to determine the level of the CPU, GPU and drive speed that best fits your need. Not all video is similar and consumer HD (AVCHD) is radically more taxing on a PC than mini-DV, for example. Since you say that you have hundreds of hours of video, I guess you aren't in 4 k yet!

    Kind regards

    Can I make photographs of product for e-commerce with the PS?

    In your original post you mentioned:,.

    Can you explain exactly what you want?

    Do you want a strong image on a Web page that displays a "ghost image" when you go over it with your cursor?

    If so, this is controlled by the design of site Web NOT in Photoshop.

    You should contact the company that provides the development of Web sites about this issue.

  • Pointer to learn how to create the split screen?

    I am trying to create some simple split screen segments where I either two or 4 videos also share space. I moved and cropped clips and they looked good from the tool. However, when I created a final file or downloaded on youtube it looks different. Where the clips looked like they were half/half or quarter of the screen in the tool, now they are clearly not.

    Suggestions?

  • How to reactivate XP product key when you're DEAF?

    My computer with XP died and I removed the hard drive and put it in an external enclosure.

    I also a Mac that I installed Parallels and then my OS XP, everything was working fine until my parallels had a file error which means I had to uninstall to reinstall it and XP, unfortunately the problem reoccured a few days later and had to uninstall everything again.
    Since I got my problem fixed parallels but when I went to reinstall my XP it would not accept my product key, used 3 times.
    So now I have all my CAD work locked on my external hard drive and cannot open because I can no longer install my XP using my cd/product key.
    I tried to get help, but as I am deaf, I can't use the phone help because my XP is no longer connected to the internet, I can't go online for help. Microsoft stopped me display of information because I am on a Mac.
    Is there someone out there who can help?

  • What App would you recommend to run virtual machines on an Imac?

    I would try to have virtual machines running on my IMac, but I'm having a hard time finding any material on this topic from apple.

    Ideally, I would like to my main x os to start and then simply turn a small virtual machines or containers from OSX.

    Any recommendations? or articles about the support of Apple for such a thing?

    There are three choices:

    Parallels Desktop for Mac

    VM fusion

    VirtualBox

    The first two are commercial products. The third is a free, open source. Three Parallels is the best.
