COLOR REQUIREMENTS
Designing in color is almost always a must today, especially since the cost of full color printing is often just as affordable as black and white printing, depending on which printing company you use.
As with most other design elements, keep the amount of colors to a minimum. Usually, two or three different colors are all that you need in any design. You may want to make sure these colors are consistent with your brand colors.
Color can be somewhat annoying to deal with if your document is one that you will publish both on the web and in print. The web uses RGB colors, while print uses CMYK colors. There's quite a bit of technicality behind these two color schemes, but you only need to know that you will have to produce the right color version for the right format. Thankfully, most design programs will convert a document's color scheme from RGB to CMYK or vice versa for you. Keep in mind that the colors will not be exact when converted, but they will be close.
If your program, however, doesn't convert for you, just use a free color converter such as Web.forrett.com, which allows you to manually enter each individual color. Or you could use one that converts all colors at the same time, such as with RGB2CMYK.org.
Need some color scheme generators? The following are the best found on the web:
• Kuler - Directly from Adobe, this one allows you to browse through more color themes than you could ever use.
• ColorSchemer - Enter an RGB color to see a handful of colors that blend well.
• Whatsitscolor - Upload any image to see the color scheme generated from it.
• ColourLovers - This is a highly respected online color community with lots of color resources.

FORMATTING THE LAYOUT
A grid can help you keep information organized and consistent from page to page. Two and three-column grids are the most popular for catalogs, newsletters, and similar documents; but you will need to decide the amount of columns based on the look you desire, as well as the amount of content and pages you will produce.
Minimalism is quite a popular trend these days.
When deciding on columns and layout, keep in mind the ever-important white space — the empty space around text and images that can be any color depending on your background. Leave enough white space so that the page looks balanced and clean; today, the more white space, the better. Minimalism is quite a popular trend these days.
Boxes and borders also help to set apart extra or important information. However, too many of these design elements will make your layout look cluttered, so limit them to only one or two per spread.
If your document will be printed, be sure to ask your printer for guidelines. For bound and folded documents, take inner margins into consideration as well as outer. Every printer has their own standards, but usually you will want to keep text within 1/8 inch of the trim line.
If you place any images along the edge or across the entire background, such as may occur with a postcard design, be sure to allow for bleed. Most printers require you to extend the background color and images at least 1/4 inch past the trim line.

LAYOUT BASICS: CONTENT
How you layout your content is critical to helping the reader grasp the intent and purpose of the document. The most important and obvious piece of content on the page is the title. This tells the reader in a nutshell what they're reading. A subtitle can help set expectations further.
The next most important content on your page after the title are the headers. Headers help organize the content logically and visually for the reader. If they are only interested in a part of the content, headers help them find it quickly. For example, let's say you plan to send a newsletter to company employees. One of the sections of the newsletter is a calendar of events in bullet point by date. Put a heading over this section like "Upcoming Events" to help readers find this information quickly on the page.
The actual body text in your document is the next most important content. This is where the reader finally drills into the details of the content. Topic sentences, bold and underlined passages, and italics are visual cues you can give your readers to help them find important details. Just remember to use stylized fonts, such as bold, with care. Too many colors and styles can make your body text unreadable.
Other content layout considerations could be elements like prices, callouts (important quotes), and sidebar items for contact information and the like. When in doubt, look up other people's work to test your layout or to get new ideas.
