today we came up with templates for our newspapers and exported them in a3 pdf files to be printed off - we used real articles written by us and tried to fit them into a DPS (double page spread) - it was very tough, i think we may need to shorten them down considerably. I felt my fonts were presented nicely - i thought hard about making sure it all synergised through seriff and sans seriff as well as column width and text box placement.
Ideally i would've used Adobe InDesign to create the layout as it's far more versatile than Pages - pages has nice "snapping" properties to centre images but other than that it feels like a cheap reipoff of MS word. I dont have that much experience with InDesign but i'll try n learn this weekend...
