3 things i like about my contents page
One thing I like about my contents page is the simplicity which really makes it look professional as the colours used are fairly basic as they are black / and a white/grey colour.
I also like the fonts used as they are very fancy and simple looking which complements the simplicity of the colours.
The importance of setting up the dialogue box in these settings is to make sure that my magazine matches real life dimensions of a real life magazine.
It also helps me get familiar with the custom settings of the program Adobe indesign.
I changed the colour of the text by highlighting the text then selecting the colour tool in the corner.
