Pamphlet making 1

[stevebiks]

Hi, i just got pagemaker, and i am trying to make a pamphlet "template" that i can go back and change later on with new information. I tried doing this in photoshop, cause i know that program really well, but its so hard to edit text placement if its written in larger blocks. So i figured pagemaker would be better suited for something like this.

Anyway, can anyone tell me the best way to make the page layout for a project like this? If i can get past this step then i can import my artwork and photos from photoshop, then add my text. thanks for any help!!

(oh i have version 6.5 if that helps)

Definitely better than Photoshop, which is designed for editing graphics, not page layout.

Your question is a bit vague. But in PM, when you set up your document on whatever paper size you will be printing it on, make sure you also select an appropriate printer under the 'compose to' box. Otherwise you wil get text reflow.

Then read and follow this:
