InDesign How-To: Create Typographic Color on a Page
See how to create a more consistent and pleasing look for a page by adjusting margins, columns, and indents.
In this InDesign how-to video, Amy Papaelias introduces us to the term “Typographic Color.” This isn’t the color of your text, but rather the overall hue of a page filled with type. By adjusting margins, columns, and indents, she shows how to create a more consistent and pleasing look to the page.
This comes from Amy’s “Put Text in Its Place” session at The InDesign + Type Summit 2021.
