Cover and Back Cover
Layout a cover and back cover using the same grid and specs. Include title and authors
name on cover. Explore color and images. Lots of times it works best to design the cover
last. This way you can build off the layout you developed for the interior of your booklet.
Inside cover, flood with a color, pattern or picture. Start your Title page content on the
first right-hand page.
