1. Getting Into InDesign!

Adobe InDesign is 'Page Layout' software.
You have incredible control over your pictures and text!

Today you will learn to:
- create a new InDesign document
- place images
- manipulate images (shrink, stretch, frame, and fit)

These are the tools you will learn:
- Selection Tool
- Direct Selection Tool
- Right Click - Fitting
- File -> Package
---and others you discover along the way!

NOTE: INSERTING IMAGES
Your pictures must be stored on a drive.
You must use the PLACE command to add pictures to your document.

NOTE: When done your document, you must then PACKAGE your file. This consolidates (brings together) all your images to one location on your drive. (This is almost the same as Saving a Movie File as compared to the Moviemaker project.)

TASK
Make a one page collage covered with images that you have intentionally placed!

DO THIS:
1. Open InDesign.
2. Make a new document. (File --> New --> Document
3. Decide on a theme. (people, faces, cars, peace, justice, information technology, fashion, etc.)
4. Collect your images from wherever.
5. Use the Place command to add each picture. Format as required.
6. When you are finished, Package the document. (File --> Package)
