corelDRAW imposition technology
When it comes to the scope of prepress production work, one has to mention the typesetting work of books or magazines. Because of the standard nature of books and magazines and industry norms, this method has certain skills and execution. At present, most printing factories are still in manual imposition for book and magazine printing and imposition, but with the gradual promotion of electronic digital typesetting technology, computer typesetting will certainly replace the manual imposition. For the selection of computer typesetting software, most of the domestic production staff currently use PageMaker, Peking University Founder and some graphics such as CorelDRAW, Illustrator, FreeHand and other software. Some foreign-funded enterprises are teaching and introducing some more advanced scientific Professional typesetting software, such as QuarkXPress. Here I have removed PageMaker, QuarkXPress and other typesetting softwares, and chose CorelDRAW, a large-scale professional software that combines the most widely used graphic images and typesetting in China, to give some simple typesetting introductions.
CorelDRAW is a professional drawing software and an extremely powerful typesetting software. There are almost no books or publications that can be seen in the market. The vast majority of graphic designers and pre-press production staff in China all have the necessary understanding and mastery of them. Together with another image processing software Photoshop, they constitute an indispensable tool for graphic designers to take up their jobs.
1. Arrangement of layout
The default page layout of CorelDRAW's working environment is an internationally used A4 office paper. This paper is for the office and not for book magazines. Therefore, we are using CorelDRAW for book layout. At this time, we must make some settings for this layout, of course, we can completely ignore the existence of this paper, and use another better method to deal with the working environment settings we want to make, that is, use some rectangular frames to Visually represent the actual paper requirements we want.
The method described in this article is not carried out according to the typesetting method required by the CorelDRAW software itself, but I have summarized it based on my personal experience in pre-press work, and I hope to be able to do some pre-press work. Production staff
Introducing jade bricks opens up another way of typesetting for readers and friends. Therefore, if you have readers who are skeptical about the layout of this article, there is no need to make some unnecessary suspicions, but you can completely combine your own practice in the actual work according to the method described in this article.
Experience, find out the typesetting method that is more suitable for you. Of course, the typesetting method introduced in this article is believed to be more suitable for some beginners who have just been engaged in pre-press work.
For reader friends who are preparing to use CorelDRAW for book and magazine layout with reference to this article, this article does not have any technical premises. It only requires reader friends to call up the CorelDRAW program from the Windows Start → Program menu.
After CorelDRAW is opened, a new desktop window similar to office software such as Word is created. The difference is only some menu items and tools.
Select the text tool of the toolbox, click the mouse anywhere in the working window, and then drag in a certain direction, a rectangular frame will be drawn in the window, and the frame can be changed in the lower right corner or directly below the frame The size of the mark, hold down here with the mouse and drag in a certain direction to change the horizontal or vertical size of this frame, here we set this frame to 170mm x 257mm size (assuming the size of the finished product is A4 paper size and The distance between the four sides is 2cm). Click the left mouse button in this box to enter text.
In a normal book or magazine, it is impossible to have only simple symbols such as text. We will also insert some objects such as pictures according to the needs of different article content or layout. In CorelDRAW, you can insert foreign processed by other software
Pictures, you can also use their own powerful drawing function to create some pictures to insert. No matter what kind of pictures are introduced, we have to embed them in the text.
The work of inserting a picture into text is very simple. Just select the picture to be inserted and set it in "Paragraph Text Wrapping" on the formatting toolbar. In this tool, CorelDRAW provides us with a rich text wrapping function, you can put the picture or left
Or right, or up and down or four sides and so on.
When inserting pictures into the text, CorelDRAW's good prepress automation function has preset preset specifications for the embedding of pictures and text. Of course, we can also carry out some self-control according to our own preferences or layout requirements. Defined settings so that
The embedding of pictures and text is more beautiful or reasonable.
If the text and picture content of the book or magazine to be edited are all input, we need to put the arranged content into the paper to print or make a large-scale printing plate on the printing machine. This step is also very simple, we only need to include the pictures and so on
All the contents of the object are selected in the group, and then use the alignment tool to align the contents with the center of the paper, or to any place on the paper. Figure 5 shows the effect of aligning the text to the center of the paper. This method is suitable for the default page format of the software to arrange multi-page continuous version
.
The above mentioned typesetting according to CorelDRAW default means that only one page of the finished page number is placed on one page. If you want to continue to arrange the content of the next page in the same file, you must add a new page number to place it.
In addition to aligning the arranged graphics and text with CorelDRAW's default paper center as mentioned above, you can also make a virtual page by drawing a rectangular frame that matches the actual paper size, so that you can place it on a page More page content, such as pressing
Printed sheets to put, you can put 16 or 32 page numbers on a page, without having to add another new page number.
In page layout, a lot of objects such as headers and footers are used. In general layout software, there are good items that automatically arrange headers and footers, but there is no such feature in CorelDRAW. But we can use this software's powerful graphics and
Layout arrangement function for manual placement. At this point, CorelDRAW is slightly inferior to PageMaker, QuarkXPress and other software, but this is not to say that CorelDRAW cannot do this, on the contrary, sometimes it may be more beautiful than it
effect.
If you want to arrange the header and footer items on the page, you can first make the header and footer in the blank space next to it, and then arrange the header and footer to any desired by copy, paste, arrange and align functions In one position.
