Why should be begin to explain plastics to the general public when the purchasing of them is not readily accessible?

The latin was filler text. It will be replaced with info pertaining to that particular event.

I interpreted the 5-layer as the new HWS. I might have misunderstood.

See, now that makes more sense to me now.

Haven't looked too much into HWS, but "5 layer" is just embedded into my mind as a plastic term.

The second pages looks great, but I think the first page looks a bit odd. The three different logos, all at the top in different styles and colours really clash together. It think if they were positioned differently on the page, or perhaps shrink/enlarge some of the logos, the presentation would prove to be kinder on the eyes.

And if you're not concerned with ink, I'd incorporate the website's background onto the background of the pamphlet.

Lastly, why the HELL are you writing in Latin?

you do realize that pamphlets are folded and all that information won't be on one page right

also sure i'll put a border all around the page margin oh wait printers need margin space

I realize all of this.

I believe you can reduce the margin.

Yes, but there still has to be some margin for my printer to grab onto.

Trim doesn't have to be THAT big...

do you not get it? a trim has to go on the outside of the pamphlet, but nothing can be printed there because the printer has to hold the paper there

I realize this.
You need a consistant margin. Parts of it looks as if they are going to fall off the page. Mainly our MFB logo and your BWR logo. Some of the images look a bit jagged as well.
Is there any further progress on this?

I thought the thread got forgotten about. That's fine, I look forward to your ammendments =D.

Are you getting these printed professionally or home print?
Home print.

You do not understand the print side of things. The design looks fine but the layout needs to be looked at as a few have stated. The only thing that is of concern is the inconsistant margin of 3mm.

The objects are free-form, not inline, so that's why ...

You work in print, so if you could give me some tips I'll use them.

I work in design but the work gets sent to a printer. So I know what the work should look like.

Do you use an inkjet or laser? Is your work CMYK or RGB? Is your printer CMYK or RGB? Also, I'm assuming you don't have a big corporate printer. If this is the case then you don't need to worry about bleed so much as it won't be getting trimmed. Your going to have a white background anyway, so you won't have to worry to much about it. All you need is at least 3mm margin. The reason for this is to prevent the article from looking as if its going to drop off the edge.

your going to need to elaborate on what you mean by Free-form objects and inline objects. I may already know what you mean but I have not come across those terms haha.
Printed out some drafts, refined it a bit and here's the finished product.
