Brochures are essential marketing tools, which establish brands and help them cut through the clutter from the competition. Here designer and educator Nigel French taps into his 20+ years of professional experience and shows how to use InDesign (with some help from Illustrator and Photoshop) to create four of the most common kinds of brochures. Each project has a different budget, a different audience, and a different purpose. But Designing a Brochure covers more than the mechanics of the workflow. It also explores the creative process, giving designers options for producing brochures that are both stylish and cost-effective.

Topics include:
* Generating ideas
* Working with templates
* Choosing the right text and typography
* Choosing colors, images, and printing and folding methods
* Creating single-fold, trifold, double parallel fold, and broadside brochures
* Placing and styling text
* Scaling and cropping images
* Preparing a brochure for print
