    Setting up images for print

    Thanks, good to know it isn't as time consuming as Google is telling me :)

    Setting up images for print

    Would like some advice as I haven't done much print work so far in my short career. :) I am creating a large banner (1m wide x 2.3 m) in Illustrator (artwork will be provided in PDF format) which will be filled with client logos. There is a rushed deadline as usual so I'm having to find these...

    Advertising for Placement Students

    Our company is going to look for a design university placement student for next summer or for the 2017/2018 academic year (and there will be none of this unpaid nonsense!). :) Does anyone know of any good websites to advertise this to students? As someone who went to university far from home...

    Combining brands

    Thank you both! The document is an eBook, probably only 7-8 pages long, about how to increase online sales using one of the company's marketing products. I've always been wary of breaking away too far from brand guidelines but this has given me the encouragement I need to just go for it with...

    Degree Or Not Degree? ... That Is The Question.

    University will teach you important design theory and thinking, and help you make contacts with like-minded people. But most importantly, University is an amazing time to learn life skills and have some fun without the pressure of having to act like an adult! I loved university and wish I was...

    Combining brands

    I've been asked to create a co-branded document for our company and another using both our styles and theirs. My current idea is to simplify the document and stick more to our branding on the pages, using their branding on their intro page, but I'm concerned this won't be enough. Does anyone...

    Copyright of objects

    We are massively struggling to find the answer, if anyone has any idea about this we'd appreciate it. Our company wants to have a mascot, a toy which we will take photos of for Instagram, use in marketing material, on our website etc. These images will not be sold, but they will be used...

    Nice, I've been using https://icomoon.io/app as the icons are for web but will keep this in mind for future.

    Fit to Artboard in Illustrator

    Everything is outlined anyway as I'm creating icons to be made into a font. Shame they don't have that option. It's not really a major issue anyway, just would make life easier than having to manually resize each one. Thanks guys!

    Word vs Powerpoint

    I know this, and I am planning on looking once I pass my driving test. It's better than nothing though and it took me long enough to find this!

    Word vs Powerpoint

    Thanks everyone. I didn't get a work laptop until 9 months into the job and I've only just managed to get Office and the latest versions of Adobe (was using OpenOffice which they complained about all the time yet wouldn't pay for the proper software). It does make my job quite hard a lot of the...

    Word vs Powerpoint

    Thanks so much for your quick replies. I hadn't considered file size so that link will be really helpful! Thanks for the advice. This is reminding me of times I have had issues with Word, especially when sending from PCs to Macs. I will trial both but I'm now thinking PowerPoint is the way...
