What is the layout of a document?

Layout refers to how the various texts and images are placed on the page. The layout is not only decisive for how attractive the printed matter looks, but also for which information stands out to the viewer most.

Maintaining the correct layout when printing

Commonly used programs for making layouts for a document are Adobe Illustrator and Adobe InDesign. To ensure that the layout of your prints is exactly as you expect, we recommend that you upload your document as a PDF, because with this file format documents always look the same, regardless of what software is used to view, edit or print the files.
