You must use all the text provided in the file iceland text.docx, and as many of the images as you choose, with a minimum of one image per page. For every image you use, include the appropriate caption from the captions.txt file. Do not include the caption identifiers (i.e., "Caption for ice-9.JPG:"), only the caption itself. There is no maximum or minimum number of pages.
You may only use a maximum of two font families - one serif and one sans-serif. You may crop images but not otherwise modify them.
All text must be black, except for any text superimposed on photos, which may be black or white. All text must be easily readable. Body text should be between 9 and 12 points.
Use a simple publication grid. I recommend a simple multicolumn grid .
You do not need to fill the entire page - white space is almost always a good idea. Correct use of paragraph styles, parent pages (master pages) and page numbers is required.
Images must be a minimum of 300 ppi effective resolution, and for this assignment all images should be converted to CMYK for print. In Photoshop, select Image->Mode_CMYK and resave any images you plan on using. Use the "Working CMYK - US Web Coated SWOP v2" profile. Note:If this were a real assignment, you'd want to check with your printing provider as to how to prepare your images.
Make sure your saved InDesign file is named YOURLASTNAME_assignment7.zip
Use the "Package" function in InDesign to create a folder containing all the required files, and then use the "Compress" function in MacOS or the "Send to Compressed" function in Windows. You can access these by right-clicking/control-clicking on the folder you want to compress.
Then, upload to Brightspace by 6 pm, Wed, Apr 08 the resulting zip file as YOURLASTNAME_assignment7.zip. (The zipped, packaged folder will have a similar name to your InDesign file; this is fine. )
To create a .zip archive: Press and hold (or right-click) the file or folder, select (or point to) Send to, and then select Compressed (zipped) folder.
Notes:
For this assignment, late submissions will be penalized at 10% of the total mark (that is, if an assignment is graded out of 10, you will lose 1 point per day, starting on the due date.)
A 1-hour grace period after the assignment due time will be given to avoid any technical issues related to internet speed resulting in late assignment penalties.
The best approach, however, is to submit work early.
