00:00:10.300 --> 00:00:14.100
So we got to know different tools to design
our content.

2
00:00:14.600 --> 00:00:18.600
On the one hand, the text tool, with which
we can of course add

3
00:00:18.600 --> 00:00:22.100
our texts, but also the rectangular frame tool,
which

4
00:00:22.100 --> 00:00:25.100
we can use to add photos or even icons, images.

5
00:00:25.600 --> 00:00:29.000
Now I would like to move on to the colors to
give our document one last coat of

6
00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:30.700
paint.

7
00:00:30.700 --> 00:00:34.700
There is a color choice here in the configuration
bar, but also

8
00:00:34.700 --> 00:00:38.700
in other places, for example here in the bottom
left of the

9
00:00:38.700 --> 00:00:42.533
toolbar I also find two color boxes where I
can set the colors.

10
00:00:42.900 --> 00:00:46.900
Before we look at the tools or color settings,
there is one more important

11
00:00:46.900 --> 00:00:50.533
piece of information, and that is the distinction
between CMYK and RGB color

12
00:00:50.533 --> 00:00:52.333
channels.

13
00:00:52.500 --> 00:00:55.733
I need the CMYK, four colors: cyan, magenta,

14
00:00:55.733 --> 00:00:58.733
yellow and black for the print shop.

15
00:00:58.833 --> 00:01:02.000
Suitable file formats or file formats are of
course

16
00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:06.000
usually the vector formats and RGB, where the
colors

17
00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:11.000
of red, green and blue are mixed, which I can
use on the monitor.

18
00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:15.000
And all digital documents such as JPG/PNG formats

19
00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:18.000
are of course ideally suited for this.

20
00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:22.000
For the print shop, however, I have to specify
these four colour channels,

21
00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:25.000
because this is the only way the print shop
will accept the document for

22
00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:27.000
printing.

23
00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:28.000
Back to InDesign.

24
00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:33.000
So, as I said, here I have several ways to
access this color setting.

25
00:01:33.000 --> 00:01:36.000
I'll choose an example text here that I would
like to color.

26
00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:40.000
With the text tool, I also have the T in it.

27
00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:45.000
The T for the text tool also appears here in
the toolbar.

28
00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:49.000
I double-click on it and can simply pick colors
via the RGB

29
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:53.000
color space and adjust them again here or enter
them directly

30
00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:57.000
via the channels, i.e. the RGB color channels.

31
00:01:57.000 --> 00:01:59.000
Or CMYIK is also available to me here.

32
00:01:59.000 --> 00:02:01.000
Which, of course, we should use.

33
00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:05.000
I'll just take this yellow-green color and
you can

34
00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:08.000
see the text has been colored accordingly.

35
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:09.000
That's all there is to it.

36
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:13.000
There is still a second color field and you
can use it to adjust

37
00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:16.000
the contours for text but also other objects.

38
00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:20.000
And you can also choose a different color as
you like.

39
00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:23.000
Like this blue now. There I get the outline
for

40
00:02:23.000 --> 00:02:26.000
this selected text, just shown in blue.

41
00:02:29.000 --> 00:02:32.000
At the top of the configuration bar, I also
get to this color space view by

42
00:02:32.000 --> 00:02:34.000
double-clicking.

43
00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:38.000
But in addition, there is a button to the right
of it, which

44
00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:41.000
I can use to access predefined color fields.

45
00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:45.000
And these are now color swatches that also
exist in your templates.

46
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:49.000
These values have already been stored for the
different

47
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:53.000
faculties and I have direct access to these
CMYK color

48
00:02:53.000 --> 00:02:56.000
values for the different faculties.

49
00:02:56.000 --> 00:03:00.000
I'll also select a color value for this marked
text

50
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:04.000
here and it will automatically be colored accordingly.

51
00:03:08.000 --> 00:03:11.000
As I said, there are different places to set
colors.

52
00:03:11.000 --> 00:03:14.000
There are also the color swatches to choose
from here in the extended view on

53
00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:16.000
the right.

54
00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:21.000
There I can also add new color swatches and
access the existing fields.

55
00:03:22.000 --> 00:03:26.000
Or adjust color swatches via the color swatch
options.

56
00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:28.000
And that's what makes it special.

57
00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:32.000
So there is the color swatch name and the setting
of the color.

58
00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:35.000
These are the values that have been deposited
here for this color.

59
00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:39.000
But if I have to change a color swatch later
for some reason,

60
00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:43.000
then I have the advantage here that I can do
this centrally

61
00:03:43.000 --> 00:03:47.000
and all elements that have been colored in
my document with

62
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:51.000
this original color swatch name B are automatically

63
00:03:51.000 --> 00:03:55.000
traced, without me having to go through them
individually

64
00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:59.000
and then have to recolor these elements individually.

65
00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:02.000
The university grey, for example, is also stored
here.

66
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:06.000
We already had that in the template up here
in the background.

67
00:04:06.000 --> 00:04:10.000
And for social and health sciences, for the
faculty, we

68
00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:14.000
already have this shade of green here in the
property, for example.

69
00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:19.000
In the toolbar there is another tool to match
the colors: the eyedropper or

70
00:04:19.000 --> 00:04:21.000
the eyedropper tool.

71
00:04:21.000 --> 00:04:25.000
Which is of course interesting, because I can
of course grab colors with it.

72
00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:28.000
On the eyedropper, there is also this marker
at the bottom right that I

73
00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:31.000
can press on it longer and there is a color
adjustment eyedropper.

74
00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:36.000
This is interesting for us, because I can then
go to a photo, for example,

75
00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:39.000
and choose the colors that are contained in
this photo

76
00:04:39.000 --> 00:04:42.000
and thus also assign them to the text, for
example.

77
00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:51.000
If you want to compose colors yourself, there
is a useful tool from Adobe.

78
00:04:51.000 --> 00:04:53.000
This is freely available.

79
00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:57.000
You don't have to register at all and can combine
the

80
00:04:57.000 --> 00:05:00.000
colors here using different color harmonies

81
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:03.000
and then extract them from them.

82
00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:07.000
There are other tabs that you can use.

83
00:05:07.000 --> 00:05:11.000
For example, the accessibility tools, which
is very useful

84
00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:15.000
because I can measure the contrast between,
for example,

85
00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:19.000
a text color and background color and get the
hint: "Yes,

86
00:05:19.000 --> 00:05:23.000
that might be enough" or "No, the contrast
is not yet strong

87
00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:27.000
enough for people with visual impairments or
visual

88
00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:32.000
impairments." There are also some areas where
you can browse to get inspired.

89
00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:36.000
So the area "Discover and Trends" brings you
color

90
00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:40.000
combinations that you might want to use yourself
but now

91
00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:44.000
also saw here in an example how these colors
have been used.

92
00:05:46.000 --> 00:05:50.000
Yes, so much for the colors and the use and
choice of colors.

93
00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:54.000
What we will look at here is a tool, the frame
tool.

94
00:05:54.000 --> 00:05:59.000
And again, you can simply click on colors from
the color palette and fill it.

95
00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:05.000
Or as we have already learned, double-click
with any color to choose it.

96
00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:08.000
As I said, the big difference is: by double-clicking,

97
00:06:08.000 --> 00:06:11.000
the color you assign is used once at this point.

98
00:06:11.000 --> 00:06:15.000
Using the color palette and the color fields,
you can store

99
00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:19.000
colors centrally as a style template for colors.

100
00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:22.000
And in case you want to make a change in the
document,

101
00:06:22.000 --> 00:06:25.000
you only have to do it in one place.
