NOTE: DO NOT BID ON THIS PROJECT UNLESS YOU HAVE EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE WITH MICROSOFT PUBLISHER AND CAN SHOW AT LEAST 3 SAMPLES OF PUBLISHER PROJECTS.
This is a monthly project which requires you to make modifications to an existing MS Publisher layout, then produce 3 slightly different versions, one of which has a different set of hyperlinks.
* You will be sent a cover in MS Publisher format. PLEASE DO **NOT** INCLUDE A COVER DESIGN IN YOUR BID.
* You will need to add 3-4 small stock photos to the layout. We have a royalty-free stock photo service you can use. WE WILL **NOT** PAY ADDITIONAL for stock photos.
* You will plug three or four articles into the layout. We will provide the articles in MSWord format.
* We will provide the text for the TOC, the blurb at the end of the issue, and the text boxes throughout the layout -- you simply plug them in and make sure fonts are formatted correctly.
* You will choose a simple color scheme of mostly neutral or dark colors for the layout.
* You plug the articles, the small pictures, and other text into one issue, then make two other versions - one black and white, and one with different links. You may have to nudge things around. DO NOT ALTER THE BASIC LAYOUT, TEX JUSTIFICATION, FONTS etc. in any way.
*You can decide how many pages are needed. There's no restriction, since this is all delivered digitally. It doesn't go to a print shop (even though we call one version "print"). It should look nice, with ample white space, and not crowded.
* DEADLINES: This project has STRICT deadlines. We will not have time to go back and forth correcting multiple problems in the layouts. Therefore YOU MUST DOUBLE AND TRIPLE CHECK YOUR WORK ***BEFORE*** DELIVERY. We will not continue to work with a contractor who delivers work with multiple errors.
* WHEN YOU BID, PLEASE INDICATE YOUR EXPERIENCE WITH MS PUBLISHER AND SAMPLES OF YOUR WORK. I will provide you with a sample of our Publisher files if your experience and samples meet our criteria.
