What I Did On My Summer Vacation
How To Make a Brochure

 

There are several ways in which to make a brochure with MS Office Suite:

  • A typical Word Document
  • A Brochure Template in Word
  • MS Publisher
 
 

If using the Brochure Template in Word, insert text by either directly typing or copying and pasting text into the desired areas.

 
 

If using MS Publisher, have the student select (or pre-select the style) of desired brochure. Pictures and text can be added by following the wizard or by copying and pasting.*

 
 

If using a typical Word Document, follow these steps:
1. Type in all desired text and pictures as if doing a simple word document. Do not add the title until the last.
2. After completing the article, go to [EDIT]>[SELECT ALL]. Go to [FORMAT]>[COLUMNS] and select three columns.

 
 

The text will automatically be formatted into three columns. Have the student check to be sure pictures are properly placed.

 
 

If printing two sides, print page one and then place page one back into the printer with the right side up and print page two. It is suggested to make a trial print.

 
  *When adding graphics or pictures, right click on the graphic and select [PICTURE TOOLBAR]. Click on the square button with the dog . Then select [TIGHT]. This procedure enables you to move the graphic around in the document.
