Brochure Software

[deepaks85]

Dear Friends,

Can anyone please advise the software to create a brochure. I tried Photoshop but while converting into PDF, the file size is too high. I also tried to put them into Adobe InDesign but still didn't work for me.

I have seen so many high quality brochures in just 10-12 mb. I don't know in which software they have been designed.

Please help me on this.

Thanks

Deepak

I would try to use MS Word I have seen people do some really brochures with it.

But in MS word......we can not get high-quality brochure. We can't put high-res images in it.

Well, high-quality pictures take up a certain amount of space. Sure, you can fiddle with the format a bit, but you'll only be able to get the space your brochure needs down to a certain amount.

You should be able to create such a brochure in any proper graphics editing program (e.g. Photoshop, GIMP, ...), although I'm sure there are better methods (which I can't think of right now).

I have used Adobe InDesign for years. Love it! Especially great if you are using other Adobe products, such as Illustrator and Photoshop because you don't have to make intermediate files (such as .jpg or .tif). You can drag-n-drop directory from the open Photoshop to the open InDesign, or drop a .psd file onto an InDesign image window.

I've used it for brochures, signs... Used to use at at the Las Vegas Review Journal for Billboards as well as the Newspaper itself.

When you say "InDesign didn't work for me", in what way didn't it work?

Why can't you get a high quality image into word?
