Channel: contactpublishing
Date: 2019-05-14

I've wanted to do this series of videos for a long time, and now I've finally made a start.Hopefully I can keep up the pace – while also putting the magazine together, under a tight deadline!In this Part 1, I show you how I prepare an Adobe InDesign template for a new magazine, by repurposing the last one.This step takes about 40 minutes – though you'll be pleased to hear I've edited the video down to about 8 minutes!
