LO4: Evidence of Proof Reading

In order to complete my magazine, I first needed to proof read the product to ensure there were no errors. I did this by printing off my magazine pages and reading through the articles, highlighting the words along the way to make sure I had read them. I then circled any errors so that I could amend them on the computer. While proof reading, I found that some of the paragraphs had not been aligned correctly as words had been split in half in order to fit on the lines. I also found that some of the page numbers we not clear against the backgrounds, so I amended these errors in the final edit before uploading the completed magazine.

I used Adobe InDesign in order to assemble my magazine. This was because it is the most suitable programme for the task, as it allowed me to finalise the layout of each page by helping me to align all of the content and preview what my printed product would look like.
