Folded booklet notes

DECIDE ON PAPER FIRST!!!!

-get some a4 paper and create a template so you can see how it will work (and number the pages)

figure out:
-how many pages
-must be even numbers
-start with front and back files

-the back of the FRONT AND BACK FILES will be page 1 and 14
-next will be page 13 and 2
-next will be page 3 and 12
- next will be page 11 and 4
-next will be page 5 and 10
-next will be page 7 and 8 (middle of booklet)
-the back of 7 and 8 will be 9 and 6

-label what pages goes together
-this is called pagination
-ensure you make a test print to make sure all layout is correct
-add BLEED IN FILE SET UP
-fold lines are determined by the thickness of the paper used
ADD 1mm FOR THE FOLD LINE
-add fold marks and place them in the bleed
-SAFETY LINES must be placed in (use 5mmm safety line)
-set each page up as a single file with numbers in file name

cut booklet out all at once. make sure it is folded!

remember that the middle pages are smaller than the rest of the pages


for the outside cover you must extend it by 2-3mm (DO NOT MOVE YOUR SAFETY MARK)

if the paper used is thick you must add 2mm for fold line
