Indesign help

[bucky_]

if you're trying to learn indesign, you've just got to jump in and just try it all out. It took me a few days to get the hang of it... and at the end of all of it... it truly is better than Pagemaker. I know that's sacrilage to say lol, but its true.

As for the box:

Pretty much make any size box, there should be a little toolbar on your screen. It will have the standard cooridinates X, Y... W,H. On mine everything is in picas, including the Width and Height. 3 inches= 18 picas, stick that in the W box. 7 inches= 42. that goes in the H box.

This is what ended up in my W: 42p1.197 H: 18p5.648

Hopefully that wasnt too confusing. lol. You can also change the rulers and measure it out. I always hated that. I never get the box quite right that way lol.

If you need any help.. you can email me or call. I had to learn indesign for the magazine. 253-312-4933. and its verizon... so its free! yay!
