Create a brochure easily
Brochures are important business tools that offer information about your services and your business. However, sending brochures off to the printers every few months can be expensive. Even if you do decide to send brochures to the printer, you still need to create the mock-ups or sample brochures and you can do this very simply through a program you may already have like Word or Word Perfect. Of course, if you want to create professional looking brochures but want an easy to use program, then you might want to try a publishing software program.
Instructions
Use Word or Word Perfect
1. Go to "File" on the top toolbar (in Word 2007 it is the Word Icon). Choose "New" and then click twice on "Brochures" from the drop down menu. The template will appear, and you can change the sample words for those you want.
2. Add images by selecting "Insert" from the top Word or Word Perfect toolbar and locate your image or clip art and insert it into your document.
3. Print the page and then slide the paper back in on the reverse side to print the inside page. Print more than one version and fix any mistakes you may see.
Use a Program
4. Download the free version of a program like Small Business Publisher, Desktop Author, or Flyers Creator.
5. Choose the free download so you can test the program and when asked to "Save" or "Run" the program, choose "Save."
6. Click twice on the program icon in the folder you saved the program in (default locations is "Downloads").
7. Follow the installation instructions on the screen. Open the program and choose the Brochure theme you want to work with. Cut the sample text and place your own text in the appropriate area. Insert pictures and art work using the program's easy buttons.
