‘About me page’ Typical body text for this document size 10 Arial - small font types recommended as generally looks better across all pages, allowing focus on the imagery. Titles and text sizes could be kept consistent, in both size and location across pages for a ‘clean’ graphic format. Alternate graphic approaches are possible, but the ‘Master Pages’ of this template offer a range of initial, straightforward layout options. Arial used throughout here, this text box is ‘Aligned left’ - leaving RHS words in various positiosn within box, some other text boxes are ‘Justified’. Whichever you choose - be consistent

technical note Your PDF portfolio will be uploaded to the LJMU / ISSUU website, from where it can be viewed by anyone with the right link and it will also be linked to the Virtual Degree Show. TO WORK ON ISSUU you must export this InDesign file as a PDF (print), and you must print as PAGES not SPREADS. But you should print as spreads to see a proof of the overall layout of each pair of pages you are making. If you want to create a real paper copy you should ensure that the document has a number of pages divisible by 4. Only then can it be printed and bound together correctly.

Could contain a lot of square images! - and a format with 5 or 6 squares per page is also possibel to make. Here the 4 square pages have a 2mm gap between each image.The 3 squares per page images have 3mm gap between images, and the centrefold gap is always 3mm. This keeps all page margins the same to all pages. This is font size 9, and the text is ‘Justified’ to give a neat right side.

141.5x210mm image, but TECHNICAL NOTE full bleed - acheived with 3mm overlap to ensure no white visible
technical note
64mm sq image
Full bleed - images right to edge of page is OK for electronic documents, but if you intend to print a hard copy you would need a specialist printer to print pages on larger sheets and then cut down. On ‘normal’ A3/A4 colour printers in uni, minimum margin that is always created is 4.2mm - of paper coloured space.

148x210mm image, but TECHNICAL NOTE requires full bleed, to get the 210mm height - so image actually 216mm high and 151mm wide to give 3mm bleed overlaps to ensure no white visible top and bottom
The document is 210mm x210mm square per page, so an ‘A’ propotioned image can be fitted as a A5 size - 210x148mm. This leaves this column with this text in it at a different width, which is not consistent with other text boxes so consider use carefully.

A4 format pages
This text column is 64mm wide, repeating width from the 3 square format.This page format allows placement of any ‘A’ format page in landscape, the yellow box being an actual A4 page size. Again this leaves a potentially unusual blank strip here, and as in previous pages a careful approach to using these bands should be considered.

Back Page You might think about this back page in relation to the front page, and if you ever intending to have a physical, hard copy made, whatever image is on the front could wrap around to continue on to the back. Or not. But the back page is another opportunity for a key image
FINAL technical note technical note ‘Override All Master Page Items’ should be applied to last page to allow the footer and page number to be deleted to back page. Or you can cover them over with an image!
