Great Tips! The pathfinder hack literally blew my mind! However, be careful with your blacks! Your basic text in a brochure or similar should always be the standard black and not a rich black. Also rember to set black elements to overprint if necessary!

1:34 you can just type 197-150 in that box and itll do the math there if you didnt know

[@jamesvictor6682]

Thanks for the golden ratio one i really needed it

Thank you very much, I will forever be coming back to reference this video, forever.

[@rachellegimpes7649]

I love watching your videos!!! Always informative, captivating to watch, and the way you teach is so easy to absorb. Thank you!

[@willpatersondesign]

You are so welcome!

[@garyvoigt321]

Always check with the print provider before you output rich black. Most do not like it over saturated w/ color because of wasted ink and dry time. Here in the U.S. most rich blacks are C: 55, M: 44, Y: 40, K: 100

6:45 Don't wanna be this guy, but setting the color to these black values will give you a total ink coverage above 300%, which you wanna keep mostly below 280%, this could mess with your prints. nevertheless great video \o/

[@GiJoe94]

Yeah the guy is weak at prepress stuff but otherwise it's good

8:17 another way to change the corner type is to use the up or down arrow keys as your rounding the corner.

The boning effect portion of the video made me question if something is wrong with my eyes. You said the one without boning looks much better. I thought they looked exactly the same, which is why I'm watching your vids 😂

[@willpatersondesign]

It's very subtle!

Will, your videos are inspiring and full of knowledge. Keep up the good work. Could you make a behind the scenes, how you create videos like this (equipment, setup, computer, etc.)? Thanks

Hey Will, a teacher of mine that worked for 30 years in the printing industry told me that the best values for rich black are C60% M60% Y60% K100%, don't know how true this is but I've been using it for years and I have a very nice black on prints every time.

Hi sir please reply when you design a wordmark logo how to decide where to add an abstract element for example 'V' in visa logo is there any fix rule or you have to add it according to requirements?

[@clevermissfox]

Do i add 150 or 180 to find the complementary? Just watched a dof video of yours and the number to use was 180

[@RAMAMOORTHI.A]

[@Jonayed_M_Khan]

I am unable to post on the reddit group, It says " Sorry this post was removed by Reddit's filters" can someone help me about this?

[@willpatersondesign]

That's odd - try changing the wording, if there's words, links, hashtags etc that go against Reddit's rules it might not let you post?
