(in school in the holiday)
Left to do the rest of the work on my own (except for the background that Luke said he would work on), I have struggled using Indesign.
I have imported the boxes that we have done into Indesign, where we are supposed to finish the banner. The banner is meant to be two sided, and to fill the other side as well as this one we intended to add opinions and other picture boxes in, as I said before. However, we have not managed to complete these other boxes and do not have much time left.
There was no problem in importing the boxes into Indesign, but when I imported the map, I had to make it bigger and it made the brush strokes that I drew over the picture with distorted looking and blurry.
I have drawn over it in the Indesign brush tool now and it looks okay.
To put everything together properly, I need to remove the white behind the pictures. I have found out that I can only remove the white if the picture is a JPEG, and in this case it is not, and is directly imported from Photoshop, therefore I cannot remove the white.
I tried to save just the highlighted map and lines drawn over it on its own, but as it was imported into Photoshop from Indesign, it would not let me edit it.
Instead, I will have to re-save the original map in Photoshop (as a JPEG), to remove the white background, and then re-draw the lines on it.
I have done this, but as the image is now a JPEG, when I increase the size of it, the whole thing goes blurry and not just the outline.
I have now realised I need to export parts of the banner (the boxes) as JPEGs as well to get rid of the white parts, so I have a folder with all the different parts in it.
