Tutorial

Slapping a picture and some text on a page is the way to go with page layout... if your idea of a burger is slapping a piece of meat on a bun! This month, Gary continues the Pasge Layout series with a nod to typographic elements, what you can do with them in a design, and perhaps throwing in a graphic or two. Text is the star of this tutorial, so if you like fonts, it’s going to be a rock ‘em, sock ‘em, em—dash time when you click the play button here!
