I need help!

I am trying to make tri-fold brochures for my business, but can't figure out what program to use to make them. I thought Word would have what I need, but it appears to be geared more towards 2 page booklets and that won't work for me.

HELP! what do i use to make them ?

I need something that will auto- create the margins for each of the 3 sections and I just need to "add text and graphics" to it.

WHOEVER ANSWERS THIS FOR ME GETS A BOOTY SHOT

hey a little bribery never hurt anyone...

type in search "brochure template" and it should search office online if you have office 2003 and it will give you all the brochure templates that you can download....the 8th one for me was business brochure and it was tri fold.

There are specific programs for that too, things like Microsoft Publisher, Pagemaker, or Quark XPress. Word is geared more towards actual word documents, so you may not be allowed to do a lot of your own type of designs.

your best bet is to browse around and get stats from each company and go with the cheapest one.

if you have photoshop you also have imageready. Simply open the image with that program and you should be able to add and remove frames and save it.
