Here's how I spend my days, January 2012 edition:


It's final tuning time for Lyssan, going back and forth with the printer. As predicted, it's a long process. Add 5mm to the edge of this file here, add a non-printing layer with instructions there. They say jump, I do it. It would all be fast changes, except half the stuff I have to teach myself how to do as they ask for it. And some of the files are so large they take 10 minutes just to load or save, and two hours to re-upload after each change.

But it's pride inspiring to see it all come together. The way I feel about feats of beautiful design, I'm starting to feel about this game. And that's a good. It's not all good. There's plenty of insomnia to go around as I wonder what notes are buried with urgent instructions to come back and fix x, and not to forget y. If only I could remember what I was forgetting.

And stuff worth sharing:

Well you can use Illustrator for layout but InDesign is much better at it. More robust options for type, bleed & slug, and file handling. It also accepts native .ai and .psd files. One of the things I love is that you can turn off layers from with InDesign without opening up Illustrator and Photoshop. If you are going to be doing more layout I highly recommend you getting a copy.
