80 LESSON 2 Architect’s letterhead Review questions 1 What is the difference between a spot color and a tint? 2 What’s the difference between opening a normal publication and a template? 3 What can you do if an object appears on top of others in an order you don’t want? 4 What is the easiest way to keep multiple objects together in the same arrangement? 5 When dragging an object, how do you ensure that it moves in a straight line? Answers 1 A spot color is a premixed ink applied to speciﬁed areas of the page on a commercial printing press. A tint is a spot color that is lightened by printing a dot pattern instead of the solid color. 2 When you open a template, a new, untitled publication is created by default. 3 Select the object, and choose Element > Arrange. Then choose one of the commands on the Arrange menu. 4 Select the objects and choose Element > Group. If you simply don’t want the objects to be moved, select them and choose Ele- ment > Lock Position. 5 Hold down the Shift key as you drag.
Lesson 3 Project proposal The project proposal you’ll create in this lesson presents an architect’s plan for the development of a community facility within the town of Bella Coola, British Columbia. This three-page, black-and-white publication uses the same framework and design elements on each page. So that you’ll only have to create them once, you’ll build a master page containing the text, graphics, column guides, and page-numbers that you want to appear on every page.
