Tutorial Coreldraw_2
1. Creating a layout
Welcome to CorelDRAW®, a comprehensive vector-based drawing and graphic-design program for the graphics
professional.
CorelDRAW X5 has a layout for a z-fold (or accordion) brochure, but in this tutorial, you will create a layout for a
barrel-fold brochure, which looks like this:
Barrel-fold brochures are ideal when you want to display text and graphics across the folds of the brochure.
This is what the final template layout will look like:

2. What you will learn
In this tutorial, you will learn
•
to change page orientation
•
to change the paper type
•
to add master layers
•
to set up bleeds
•
to set up print margins
•
to save a drawing as a template
To begin the tutorial, you will create a new document and set the page properties. You will then add guidelines
to set up the brochure pages.
You will add a master layer. You can use master layers when you have content that you want to apply to all pages
in a document. On the master layer, you will set up a bleed that ensures that no white space appears between the
edges of the drawing and the edges of the paper after the document is printed.
You will also set up a printing margin that will inset the brochure text from the edge of the page by creating
rectangles to represent the printing margin. You will put the rectangles on a nonprinting layer so that you will be
able to see and snap to them, without making them part of the final design.
You will finish the tutorial by saving the drawing as a tri-fold barrel brochure layout.
Throughout the tutorial, you will use rectangles to help you set up elements of the brochure. You will also use
time-saving mathematical operators to quickly and precisely resize the rectangles.
