#54 August 26: Brochure revision – 2 hours 30 minutes

Last week, I sent over the latest copy of the brochure and suggested edits were made then I sent it back. This evening, Josh emailed me with a few more instructions: one was to cut the rounded corners in the ribbon portion of the medal and adding a different connector. Luckily, I can be pretty resourceful, so I cropped the ribbon into a rectangular shape and then added triangles to make the corners pointed. Now it looks a little more like what Josh had in mind for the brochure. Another issue that I am not entirely sure how this happened or how to fix it is the formatting of the three panels to each page. “The centering is off,” Josh indicated in the Word document he sent me.

It is a headscratcher because I initially used a template designed by Canva. Even when the colors switched from yellow/black to red/white, it kept the same structure. Perhaps the margins got moved when I went to edit something in the brochure. I really could not say for positive. What I do know is that I will need to look at it and see how to remedy the situation so that the columns are aligned. I must admit that I like the direction that we are going with the brochure. It already looks good but with all these touchups we are making, and at this point, I feel comfortable with calling them touchups, it is going to be even better. We are that much closer to a final product.
