During this project, you will be able to work with text formatting in different applications and demonstrate how to use the layouts provided by the system to develop different designs. You will be able to create new documents and apply effects to them. You will create a complete document by applying formatted texts and layouts in Adobe InDesign. In this project, we will imagine you are working for a marketing company as a graphic designer, and you need to create a menu for a new restaurant in the city.
