Grid System | Sad Bird Design What is this? This is an ongoing guide to creating grid systems for print, which will be continually updated. Introduction: There are plenty of guides out now online about how to create grid systems for the web, even grid generators. Let’s Get Started: I’m going to assume you have chosen an appropriate paper size and margins. The grid is based on leading. 1. Page: 8×10 inches. 2. Place a blue line under each baseline. Typeface: Helvetica. 3. Right now you have a block of text with 48 lines. 4. 5. Place a red vertical line to mark the columns. Page divided into 6 columns. We can’t stop here, though. Black bar represents distance between baseline and cap-height. Now translate that into the space between columns. 6. Page: 12 rows by 6 columns. 7. These are just a very few of what is possible in a matter of minutes. I will talk about page numbers later, and edit if anything is unclear.
Page Layout Design Home > Design Tips > Page Layout Design In this tutorial, we’ll explore the design phase of document creation. With the grid as our layout guide, we’ll look at the various ways that elements—text, images, graphic objects, and so on—can work together to produce effective layouts. The grid provides a structured framework for a layout, but it should not limit design or stifle creativity. Rather than forcing you to work rigidly within its confines, the grid layout should work for you, allowing you to dictate the look and feel of your publication. We’re confident you’ll never look back! By the end of this tutorial you will be able to: Understand how basic grid structures are used for page layout. Why use grids? Grid structures are vital to successful document design, and especially so for documents containing a mixture of text and graphics. In the following pages, we’ll look at some different grid structures and illustrate various layout options for each. 1: Basic grid structures Page margins:
How to Create a Professional Magazine Layout A few times a each month we revisit some of our reader’s favorite posts from throughout the history of Vectortuts+. This tutorial by Otto Coster was first published on August 4th 2010. Have you ever wondered how professional designers strike the perfect balance between text and image? Using InDesign's powerful type tools, you will learn techniques to help you set and arrange a magazine layout. Step 1 Setting up the Document We'll be using a standard A4 size document for this tutorial. Step 2 Creating a Grid To set up the page grid, go to the "A-master spread" and choose Layout > Create Guides. Why? Step 3 Placing a Background When creating a magazine layout, you'll want to keep a good balance between the white space, images and text. Go to page 2–3 and place your photograph in the bleed space so that the entire spread is covered. Step 4 Creating Body Text Step 5 Setting up a Baseline Grid To make our text look good we need to set up a baseline grid. Step 6 Changing the Basic Paragraph Style
The Complex Grid « Whatype 13/11/2009 – I’ve made a 2010 Calendar using the Complex Grid and I’ve explained it step by step. You can check that article here. I hope you like it Karl Gerstner designed this grid for his work on the CAPITAL magazine. This is actually a six-column grid with a four-column grid superimposed. I believe that the effort that goes into making such a grid is really worth it. So, what we want to achieve is a layout that is divided in 2, 3, 4 and 6 columns and has the same horizontal divisions. In the real world, often you can’t choose the size of the page your document is going to use, so I’ll show you the entire math that you must do to build a Complex Grid on a page that is given to you. 1. As you can see, the lines of text don’t fit the type area exactly – don’t worry about this for now, we’ll manage to get every thing right in the end. One of the first maths you should do is finding the number of lines that allow you to make the divisions you want. And this equals 35.5. 2. 3. 4.
Five simple steps to designing grid systems – Part 2 – July 16th, 2005 – In part one of this Simple Steps series I talked about how to use a simple ratio, that of the paper size you are using, to create a symmetrical grid on which to create your designs. This, the second part in the series, will deal with other ratios and how they can be combined to create more complex grid systems. I’ve talked a few times about using the Golden, or ‘Divine’, Section in the grid systems you design. The Golden Section is a ratio which is evident throughout the universe as the number Phi. This is an important point and has been argued and debated for ages. Composition can make things more usable This is a theory that exists called the ‘Aesthetic Usability Effect’. Composing grids using theory and balanced ratios (such as the Golden Section), which in turn enable the creation of beautiful, balanced designs. Well designed grid systems can make your designs not only more beautiful and legible, but more usable. Putting it into practice Shaping the page The series
