What do I need to create a magazine?

8 Feb, 2008

Assuming you already have everything you need to create your own magazine. Things like photos, icons, logos, content, etc. We would only need to create our own brochure. But you might be wondering, what programs do you need to develop a magazine?

I can recommend you a few:

To diagram your magazine, you can use Adobe InDesign like Quark Express. You’ll save a lot of time, because you can use a master sheet with the magazine characteristics. Like the font type for all the titles, colors, diagramming, etc.

For photo arragement and retouching,  Adobe Photoshop like Adobe Firework. The first one here is a very powerful tool for image editing, but some people rather use Firework, even though it has limited options. Everything will depend on your needs. For vectorized pictures, my favorite choice would be Adobe Illustrator. A program that has proven to be the best of them all.
