DISCLAIMER: this is an old assignment from last semester
This assignment is about multi-column typesetting. To prepare, read this article about Square Span, an alternative way of setting and reading texts, which was presented by Robert Andrews in 1948. In the video tutorial, you will learn different ways to build these multi-column layouts. In this assignment, we will focus on split columns that are defined via the paragraph style (not via the text frame options). The different paragraph styles can be chained as in Assignment 7. Paragraph and column breaks can be inserted manually or automatically using Find/Change or GREP.
Here is an Indesign Template for Chapter 7 (the final chapter of Volume 1).
