Use InDesign for layout work, Photoshop for editing work.

DON'T. USE. WORD.

Yeah don't use Word.


NYC's your theme? Hmm do you have any images you're thinking of using? So I can make some suggestions for fonts?

Facepalm to all of you. Word is great tool for pamphlet design.

If it's printed material, I usually make all the graphics in Photoshop, and then put them all together in Word.

Although I see a "city" type theme in all the images, the first one doesn't really scream "city" to me like the other ones do. But take a look at these fonts:

Honestly, I'd steer away from graffiti fonts because they're a bit much, imo.
