Kilburn Page Layout
Every book requires a layout. In this case not so much a book as a small eight page covered pamphlet to go into the finished portfolio. Work begins with the schematic as shown below. Click on the image to see in up close. You should be able to see the faint lines I used to guide my decisions about margins. The technique is the same used since the middle ages. In this case, I did not follow the geometry exactly, but adapted the text block size for leads I have already cut to a length of 20 picas, which will give me a text block about 18 picas wide.
