Posting your magazine covers

I have been very happy with what I have seen so far, so I am publishing this today so some of you can finish today, but I do not EXPECT these to be in my possession until next week. I will be giving you Monday (A-Day) and Tuesday (B-Day) to finish and get these turned in.

Remember that your 2 magazine covers MUST look dramatically different. Please pick a different title, color palette, etc. I do not want to see two identical covers with just different photos.

When you have both covers done, please follow the instructions listed below to turn your projects in. FOLLOW THEM SPECIFICALLY AND EXACTLY. It may look complex and it isn't simple, but if you follow them carefully you will need no help from me.

You must have your cover open in InDesign (NOT photoshop)

>File>Adobe PDF presets>Smallest File Size

>Rename your magazine cover as follows: Last name_first name_magazine cover_period #

Make sure to save it in your folder (not your H-drive, not your S-drive, NOT the desktop, your folder on our class drive)

>Click export (if any messages come up about outside the clipping area or anything else like that during the .pdf creation process, click okay)

Once you have placed them in YOUR folder on the server, put them in the folder on the server titled "MAGAZINE"

ALSO  -  we want to post these on your blog. To do this you have to convert the .pdf into a jpeg file.

1. Open Photoshop
2. Open the .pdf of your magazine cover (NOT the .indd, it won't work)
3. When the .pdf converter pop-up box appears, click okay
4. >File>Save as
5. Change the format into .jpeg
6. Click save
7. Make sure you save it at the highest file size
8. If you get any other pop-up boxes, click okay 
9. Post it on your blog.

Once you have it posted on your blog, you are....

DONE!!!!
