That ensured that they could comfortably be printed on A4, it was clear what the actual pages look liked, they were readers' spreads so the page-by-page look was the same as when professionally produced, and it was easily restored to produce a PDF for that same professional production. So I put a rectangle on the master page that all of the other masters were based on, on a separate layer, and exported as spreads. The first is useless, the second is confusing (because of the *huge* white borders that you get). I knew the PDF proofs were sent to amateur designers, and – call it raw experience – I knew someone was going to try and print it on a European standard size A4 printer, either with "Fit page to scale", or with "Center page". Last year I made a 300p small page booklet – a bit tinier than A5.

But it does take a pro to know when exactly to do so. Of course the above answers are right, but it also can make sense to deviate from it when and where appropriate.

I won't be surprised if adding a 'page frame' (whatever that thing means) in PowerPoint (say) is a lot easier.ĭid you ever try to do in ID something more complex than a b-card or flyer? Yes, InDesign IS NOT an ideal app at all. Sorry, only non-professional users of both apps think so.ģ. CorelDraw IS NOT InDesign competitor, never was and never be. For example, you probably won't find confusing to define what "Empty Text Frame" in InDesign is? Simple? He he, ask serious scripters.
Yes, it's indeed may be confusing to understand what a Page Border is.

I believe a good software is the one which understand the next step the user will go for and provide a short cut for itĪnd let the user be more creative in oppose to being techyġ. Theres ton of these problems with adobe products, im Saying these cause im adobe user and i do need a good tool to work with I Seriously do not know why Adobe not looking at their competitors and see what they are offeringįor example go to corel and go file open and compare this to Indesign or illustration, what you need to do if you want the page size in different unit? I dont what to use other software name here but in corel you can do this by just simply double click on the rectangle tool and u have it all ĭo this, create a design and leave the half top empty, save it as PDF and import it to indesign, you see that the size of the design is the size of the graphic not the actual page size you had in Illustrator which is absolutely not good, if you were in print business you know what im talking about, but if you could add a PAGE FRAME with no stroke and no fill (kinda fully transparent) the it will hold the frame size in export for you. I dont know why its so confusing to understand what a page border is, a page border is a border around the pageĭrawing a rectangle manually is so unprofessional, draw a rectangle adjust the size and then move it to the edge is again very unprofessional and very time consuming, (some might say it'll take 3 mins) i should say yes 3 mins that you are not following your design is a lot of time and.
