Using Quark

Scaling image to the size of the box.

In today's lesson we used Quark Passport 7.5 to create our Contents page. Quark was a whole new programme which i hadn't used before but i found it easy to follow and found it more satisifying to produce a contents page. Firstly, i created a new document with consisted of three seperate columns. I then added a picture to my contents page the image that i used corresponds to the featured article on the front cover. To achieve this i simply clicked on the image tool featured on the left and drawn a box significant to the size of the image. To import the picture i simply right clicked and imported the picture of my choice.

To insert my title, i also click on the text box at the left hand side of the programme, i drawn a text box at the top of the page and clicked on the hand icon on the left hand side to enable me to insert my text. I then changed the font and colour so it is cohesive with the front cover.

To insert columns i also clicked on the text box icon and drawn a text box within the three columns and inserted my Featured articles and Regualr conent. If the text was too long for the text box drawn a red cross would show up, from then you would click on the "Chain" icon situated on the left and then click on the empty text box the writing that was not visible would then be moved over to the empty text box.
