Printing Your Own Custom Newsletters From Home
If you want to develop your own custom newsletters
, you dont really have to go around town to get a newsletter printer. You can actually create and print your own
custom newsletters from home. With todays technology, you dont even have to be an expert to do it. There are just seven easy steps in creating newsletters. Let me teach you how they are done.
1. Pick a software application that you can easily use Starting off, you may want to first pick a software application that you can work with and use easily. Many newcomers to newsletter printing think they can handle fully featured desktop publishing applications, only to be overwhelmed with the tools and formatting options after starting. So it is important that you pick something that really is easy to use for you.
If you are a real newbie at this, then a word processing application such as Microsoft Word is good. If you are more skilled, Microsoft Publisher might be a better fit. Of course, for experts, you will probably want to use stuff like Adobe InDesign or even CorelDraw. Just pick the one that you can easily work with.
2. Get a good newsletter template With your software chosen, you should then get a good newsletter template for that application. Some applications already have built in templates. So if possible you can just look at the template menu and choose the appropriate ones you may want to use. Otherwise, you should get some newsletter templates online. There are plenty of free newsletter templates you can download from newsletter printing websites. Just choose one that looks good for you.
3. Write your essential articles Next, you should then write your essential article content. If you already have those in hand, it is important that you review and proofread these articles perfectly. It is best that all the editing is done before the layout process so that you can design your newsletters faster. So make all your text content perfect and ready before you start the next step.
4. Get the right pictures Of course, you might want to get a few images for your custom newsletters. My recommendation here is for you to get these pictures from original high resolution resources. It is important that you do not just pull off any image right off the Internet. You need to get large color photos and graphics that are ideal for newsletter printing. Target images that are beyond 1000x1000 pixels or 300dpi and above. This will minimize any kind of print deterioration of the images once printed.
5. Create an effective layout Finally, you can then start on the layout. With the template ready, and the text and images already set, you just need to start combining them. Just load up your template in the software you have chosen and then start adding in your articles and pictures. Of course format the headlines and other text content appropriately, while you position your images in the best high visibility locations. Just let your creative side rule here, but keep in mind the norms of a typical newsletter layout.
6. Perfect everything Before you print newsletters, you should make sure that everything is perfect for printing. Recheck your content for grammar and spelling errors, and of course you may want to check if your images are cropped and set correctly in their positions. Try to do your proofreading at least three times so that nothing is missed. You wont want any gross error being mass produced in newsletter printing.
7. Getting great prints Finally, it is time to print newsletters from your home. Now, you can print your newsletters via your home printer if you want. However, if you lack the time, patience and expertise to do it, then you should just visit an online newsletter printing company. There are plenty of those on the Internet. You just need to send them your draft document, pay for the ordering fee and they will deliver your newsletters for you in a few days. It is that simple and you will not even have to leave your home. With professionals doing the job, you should be able to get great looking professional newsletter prints.
Great! Newsletter printing is that easy from home! Almost anyone can do it, and so can you!
