The document provides guidelines for key elements of a magazine cover layout. It describes where the masthead, selling line, dateline, coverlines, main image, and main kicker/coverline should be placed and recommends font styles for each. The masthead should be in a large, distinctive font at the top, while the selling line and dateline are directly below in Times New Roman. Additional coverlines on the left side promote other stories in smaller Times New Roman text. The focal main image is centered, with the related main kicker/coverline directly below in a large, easy-to-read Arial font.

2. The selling line, located is directly under the masthead. This should be short and
snappy as well as informed on what this magazine's point is. The font will be Times
New Roman as it is easier to read.
The dateline would be kept at the top left corner so it will be the first text the
reader would see. The font will also be Times New Roman.
The Masthead would have the biggest font size from the rest as well as a different
text colour to make it stand out. The font will be either Arial or Ravie to add
emphasis.
These will be the coverlines, located at the left hand side of the magazine. They
cover other news which is included in the magazine but are not as important as the
main headline. The font will be Times New Roman.
This is where the main image will be placed. The image chosen is a photo of a
girl turning to the camera, smiling while holding a folder and carrying her bag,
entering the school.
This is the main kicker/coverline which will be linked to the main image
featured. This section would have a bigger font size from the other coverlines, but is
smaller than the masthead. The font would be Arial as this is easier to read.
