Building Better Brochures, Banners And Training Materials

Training Provided by INT Information Systems, Inc. This class is geared toward those people who are comfortable working with text in Word, but have a desire to incorporate pictures and drawings into their documents. While it is not a full-featured graphics package, Word includes a significant set of tools that allow you to create and manipulate pictures. Many of the topics in this class pertain to PowerPoint as well, so the class can be considered "cross-training" on two programs at once. At the conclusion of this one day class, students will be prepared to use Word as a "light" desktop publishing program. The class is taught as a hands-on "laboratory" lead by an experienced instructor. During class, students use a workstation to work with actual files and real-world examples. In addition to the classroom instruction and hands-on exercises, each participant recieves a booklet and class CD, detailing the topics and methods presented during the class, for their review after class.

Building Better Brochures, Banners And Training Materials

The use of pictures and drawings in Word can be particularly difficult because of the way Word organizes documents "behind the scenes". Many people are unaware that the problems they experience while working with Word documents that include pictures and drawings have a perfectly logical explanation. For example, have you ever deleted text in a Word document to find that this also deletes a picture that is seemingly unrelated to the deleted text?

This class is designed to make working with documents that include pictures more hassle-free. Beginning with the basics of inserting graphics and moving into manipulating them with colors, 3D and shadow effects, the class details every significant tool and setting related to the use of pictures and drawings. The class covers basic and advanced topics such as how to create computer screen captures, alter clip art to meet your personal needs and link multiple text boxes together. For those using Word to create signs and announcements, or training material, this class is invaluable. The class objectives include:

• Understand basic concepts: what is a graphic?, inserting, resizing and moving graphics, the document layering system.
• Learn to manipulate graphics: the Drawing and Picture toolbars.
• Work with multiple graphics: layering, aligning, distributing and grouping graphics.
• Use tools for signs and announcements: WordArt and page borders.
• Create computer screen captures and work with callouts.
• Learn useful tips and techniques: copying objects, create "cut out effects", make text watermarks, shaped text wraps.
• Review other tips and techniques.
