Good typography skills are essential for any graphic designer - and those of us who work with text every day know how difficult it can be at times.
A well-planned grid is key to creating a good typographical layout, as having a strong foundation to work with is a great way to keep a text-heavy document looking clean, consistent and easy to navigate.

In this tutorial I'll show you some of the processes I go through when creating a simple page template from scratch in InDesign, from building the initial grid to adding picture frames.
