Suggestions When Desiging Your Ad

Design Tools: Many parents ask what tools should be used in designing your ad. Depends on what kind of app you are comfortable. Below are a suggestions based on skill levels.

ART DESIGN APPS

  • ADOBE Illustrator
  • ADOBE Photoshop
  • ADOBE InDesign

EASY TO USE APPS

  • Word Processor (WORD/PAGES)
  • Google Slides
  • Canva.Com

Follow Content Recommendations: The recommendations above allow for your design to have more impact when printed in the yearbook. If you opt for the Quarter Page size, less is more.

Avoid Small Images: We want to put in every favorite shot we can of our loved one. The smaller the image the harder it will be to see once it’s printed on the page. We recommend images to be no less than 1 inch (300pxl) on one side. For group shots, the larger the better.

Font Size: The amount of content used is very important but the size of the font is even more important. Please only use size 12 font or greater when designing your ad. If you have to lower the font size under 12, we recommend shortening your content. Please note the Quarter page size, has very limited content space.
