3
Section planning □ Drawn up individual heads of departments – e.g Home News, International, Business, Features, Sport etc
4
Page planning □ Section editors or duty editors decide on which elements to put on an individual page – basically a list of stories and associated pictures □ May define which story is to be page lead
5
Page design □ Layout sub-editor uses Quark Xpress or Adobe InDesign to lay out individual stories and pictures on to the page □ Crops pictures and checks their mode (CMYK) and resolution □ Positions headlines, captions etc, but doesn’t necessarily write them □ Usually doesn’t cut copy to fit
6
Subbing and copyfitting □ Copy sub fits all text to page. Rewrites if necessary □ Writes headlines, standfirsts, captions etc □ Checks for clarity □ Checking for factual errors □ Checking for grammatical errors □ Checks for legal issues
7
Proofreading □ Pages are printed out and read for grammatical errors (known as literals), factual and legal errors □ Standard proofreading marks are used to indicate where errors are for correction
8
Sign-off and export □ When the section editor or editor has signed off the final corrections, the page is exported as a pdf
9
The printing process □ From the finished High-resolution pdf, four ‘plates’ are made : Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black (CMYK) □ These are used for the four different inks that are applied, in turn, by the printing press
