Create a brochure
Pages excels when it comes to making documents that really grab your attention
W
ith this walkthrough, we’re going to create a brochure by starting with one of the templates from the Template Chooser that appears when you first launch Pages. The Template Chooser can also be accessed from the File menu by choosing New. We’ll use a brochure template here, but the principles are the same for all templates.
Once you’re comfortable using templates to create documents, you can create them from scratch and even make your own templates. Documents in Pages can either be layout or word processing types. By default, brochures are page layout documents and templates like reports, CVs, and letters are word processing. You can see which type of document you’re working on, and change it from one type to the other, by clicking on Documents in the toolbar. If the box labelled Document body is checked, it’s a word processing doc, if not, it’s a page layout. Tick or untick the box to change it.
