Because MagCloud trims its documents to 8.25” x 10.75” we are going to lose 0.125” inches off the top and bottom, and 0.25” off the outside edge. This not only helps with visualizing layout, but also will help you decide which page styles are going to be right-hand pages and left-hand pages.Īdd guides to pages and adjust layout for trimĪdding guides to the outside edges of each page will ensure that everything will fit inside the trim line). The reason for doing this is that you want to see what’s available to you, and actually modify the “template” so that you can use it again and again, rather than having to copy and paste design elements repetitively throughout the design process. In my example here there are eight (varying from a cover, table of contents, feature article and 4-column text page, etc). Within the template there are a number of layout styles available. *With this particular application, it’s my suggestion that you work on setting up your template before you start adding any of your content.Īdd all pre-designed pages within the template Rather than start with a blank document, I always start with a template in Pages and modify it to suit my needs, this way I already have built-in paragraph and character styles. Because the template is designed for a US Letter sized paper (8.5” x 11”) it will be really easy modify for my own use.Īpple’s Pages templates all come with built-in Paragraph and Character style templates which make it much easier to keep a consistent style throughout your publication. In this case I found mine in the “Template Chooser” within the Pages application. To get started, you’ll want to find and open a template. The original Pages version is available here: Download original Pages Template and my MagCloud-ready version with a Southern California theme, is available here: Download Modified Template A number of other sites also offer Pages templates, but for my example today, I’m going to use the standard “Program” template in the application’s “Template Chooser”.

Any designed to print full size on an 8.5”x 11” piece of paper are almost great starting points for creating MagCloud publications. When you open Pages it will offer you a number of template options. With Apple’s iWork Pages it’s easy to make a MagCloud-ready PDF. Here in my second exploration of basic design software, I’ll dive into using Apple’s design tool that comes in their iWork productivity suite (retails for just $79 at ) to create your MagCloud publication.

If you’ve been holding off on publishing through MagCloud because you didn’t have the design skills, couldn’t afford expensive design software and didn’t have a best friend who is a graphic designer, why not use a template in a more accessible application?
