Business card exercise
Make the above recto verso business card — a two-page document in InDesign.
(A Plus Ltd. is a fictitious company.)
The logo, texts, and image are in qoolcat.com/down/indesign-ex1.zip.
Page dimensions: 84mm × 55mm plus bleed of 2mm
(The above image shows the business card without the bleed).
Colour red is CMYK 0 100 100 0
Recto
- Logo x-y coordinate: 7mm, 7mm; text 46mm, 7mm
- Logo size 12 mm x 12mm
- Font Lato 8.5pt with interlinage 10pt; the name is Lato Heavy and the rest is Lato Regular.
(You will need to synchronise this font from the Adobe creative cloud if you have not already.)
Verso:
- Cross x-y coordinate 7mm, 7mm
- Cross width 12mm; height 12mm; line thickness 2mm
(An easy way to make the cross is to create two white rectangles, and combine them.)
You should estimate all other dimensions.
Extra
Design a business card in portrait with the same information (same text and logo), but with your own design.
While business cards are becoming less useful, there is still a demand for them.
