InDesign Exercise 2

Invitation card exercise

This exercise is more intricate than the first one.

Make this recto verso invitation card โ€” a two-page document in InDesign. (A Plus Ltd. is a fictitious company.)

The logo, texts, image, a PDF rendering of the above, and a help page โ€” are inย qoolcat.fr/down/indesign-ex2.zip.

In the download file, the “Help-Handout.pdf” document contains useful tips.

  • Dimensions: 153mm x 153mm plus bleed of 3mm (the above images show the invitation without the bleed).
  • Colour red is C M Y K 0% 100% 99% 4% โ€” you should create a colour swatch for this.
  • Font is Lato: Light, Regular and Semi Bold.
  • Main text is Lato Regular size 8pt with interlinage 11.5pt.
  • The asterisk is from the font Wingdings 2, character โ€œร โ€.
  • All dimensions you can estimate, but the result should be almost identical to what you see here.

On the first page, to make the white between the logo and the โ€œQโ€ in โ€œQuarterlyโ€, you can have a white rectangle placed in front of the โ€œQโ€ but behind the A+ logo. You do this the other way around on the second page.

Extra

Make this invitation card with your own design but with the same format and information.
