  1. InDesign CS4 Basics By: Kaitlyn Dickinson

  2. Making Boxes • Click the Rectangle Frame Tool • Click on the page and drag until the box is its preferred size. • If the sizing needs to be changed, insert the dimensions into the Width and Height boxes.

  3. Inserting a picture • Once making the box, drag the desired picture over into the box. • The picture may need to be resized or centered.

  4. Resizing and Centering Pictures • When resizing a picture, click the box until the tan outline appears, as shown to the left. • Once the tan outline is surrounding the box, hold down the SHIFT key and drag the picture to its preferred size. • With the tan outline still surrounding the picture, you can center the picture as needed in the box. • To resize the actual box, click until the blue outline appears. With this outline, you are able to move, resize, and rotate the picture box.

  5. Inserting a Text Box • When inserting a text box, click the Text tool as shown to the left. • Drag the mouse to make the text box. The size can be changed once the box is made. • This technique is very similar to making a picture box.

  6. Changing Text in a Text Box • To change the font of a text, click the scroll arrow in the Font Box. • Highlight the text and then choose your desired font. • To make the text bold or italicized, click the box below. • When changing the size of the text, highlight it and then click the preferred size in the Text Size scroll box.
