1. The document describes creating a double page spread in QuarkXpress with 6 columns to accommodate text and images for an article. 2. The original layout was changed to better fit the size of the article and pictures. Additional pages were added. 3. Text elements like the title, stand first, and article text were formatted and colored to make them visually stand out on the page.

1. Firstly I opened Quark
Xpress and created a new
project I made sure that
when I created the new
project that it had 3
columns this would then
double when 2 pages
were put together to
make the double page
spread.

2. To create my double page I had to add two of the 3 column single
pages together. When it came to actually writing the article and
adding it to the pages it was apparent that the layout I originally
chosen wouldn't work with the pictures I had or the size of the
article so had to create another page.

3. I then got the image I was using and spread it across all
six columns as I had to change it because originally the
photo was only meant to cover three of the columns but
the image didn't look right.

4. I then had to include the title however I had to add the title in two separate parts as I
tried to get the title as large as I could make it and putting the full title in 2 different
parts was the only way in achieving this. I added them both in separately so I could
stretch the text and make it bigger also so that they would fit on two lines but at the
same time be the same size and this was the only way to do it.

5. The second part of the title was then added in
another text box and was stretched and changed
colour to create the same effect

6. I then added a stand first by using the simple text box and adding the selected
text I then changed the colour to make sure it stood out from the background.

7. For the last part of this page I added the article its self and realised that I had to
use a bright colour for the first part of the article as like the other text it would not
show so chose a bright yellow colour that stood out.

8. I used this to use
drop capitals typing
in how deep I
wanted to drop
capital to be.

9. Because of the size of
my article and the
changes I had made to
the layout because of
the photo I had to add a
page so that the rest of
my article would fit
onto the page instead of
using the intense
yellow colour for the
text I kept it simple and
used the black as the
image was blank and
also people would
probably not be able to
read the article if it was
the yellow because of
the bright background.

10. When I added the
text I had to
change the
settings of the
page to make
sure that the
writing went into
all 3 columns, to
do this I had to
change it so that
the computer
knew how many
columns there
were.

11. I then added an
image of Take That so
that to the readers
the image would link
in with the text.

12. I then added the
name of the
magazine and the
page number it
would have been if it
was to be added into
an actual magazine
