1. Class Introduction: If you want to learn to
keep a habit for goods, may be exercising, LTE, eating, journaling, or reading. The most effective thing to do is to keep a habit tracker. In this class, I'm going
to show you how to create both a simple and a more advanced version of a habit tracker using
Adobe Illustrator. Hi, I'm Claudia. I'm an artist and online teacher and I'm based in
Sydney, Sicily, Italy. First, I will show
you how to set up the document and make the
grid in Adobe Illustrator. Then I will show you
a trick to align the dates perfectly and quickly
over the chocolate grid. I will then show you how to add the decorations your tracker, using a very cool script, which we make adding an embellishment to
your tracker ascent. I will also show you how to add the weekly tracker and add drop shadows to text and decorative elements
and mirror an element. At the end, I will teach
you a quick way to use circles instead of a
grid for your tracker. As a bonus lesson, I will show you how
to add you a page to Adobe InDesign in
case you like to create a little booklet
with your tracker pages. By the end of this class, you will have made a
personalized habit tracker. And you will learn the skills in the use of Adobe Illustrator
that will be useful for the projects to
this class is for intermediate students or
adventurous beginners. But they're included
downloadable Illustrator files, which you can use as a starting point to
make your checker. So if you're ready,
let's get started.
2. Class Project: The project for this class is
to create a habit tracker. You can create either
a simple tracker or a more advanced
one with decorations, a weekly tracker in space for the month, or
anything in-between, ready to access your downloads, you will need a password
and the password is be sure to share your
projects in the project section. And if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. I'm here for you.
3. Let's Start The Design: Let's start creating
our habit tracker. At the end of the class, you should have something like this. And of course you
can personalize it whichever way you like. So let's start with
a new document. So go to Create New. And here it depends if you
want an A4 or letter or an A5. So you should decide which
sites you like best. So I will go with an A4 and I will use the
orientation, the landscape. And of course you can choose
a different orientation, but I find with
their habit tracker works best at least
for me, the landscape. And I can live a three
millimeters bleed, which is the space basically
around your art board. And I can show you it's this red line that you can see
around the art board. And this is especially
useful if you want to have a colored background. So when you print it, the blade will avoid having that white sort of Beta around. But there are some
printers which will still, I think the home printers will give you the way to around. But it's a good thing
to know if you want to have some bleed around it. And then the next thing
we need is a rectangle. So we go to the
rectangle tool or we press M on the keyboard. And then we do a rectangle
which is a bit smaller, then we can change
it afterwards. So somebody like that. And the next thing we need
to do is go to object and go down to path and
split into grid. And now we need to add the
number of rows and columns. The rows will be basically the number of habits
you want to track. So depends if you have ten or if you have 16 or
whatever it is. So let's, let's put 16 here. And then the columns of
course, is the number of days. So we put 31 as the
maximum number of days. And just like magic, you have a grid. Now, each one of these is
a separate little square. So be aware of that if
you want to move it. And I think I'm going to make the stroke a bit
smaller, a bit thinner. There we go. I probably make it a little
bit shorter like this. Because then we want to
add some writing here. But the next thing we want
to do is actually to add some lines where to
write your habits. So we go to the
line segment tool. And this one, if you use the square before
the rectangle tool, then it will be there
under Tango tool. If you click and
hold for a second, then it will give you
the options here. And you can either
click here or click this slash bar there
on the keyboard. So then you click and drag
and press the Shift key. So it will do an
horizontal line. And let's see. Let's put it here. Maybe make it a little
bit longer like that. And then what we want
to do is to copy this for the other
lines basically. But there are different
ways to do this. So what you can do
is you can click and hold down the Alt
key and the Shift key. And then you have another line. The Shift key is to
keep it in alignment. And the ALT key is
to make the copy. And then once you've done that, you can click Control
D to make copies. And you click it as many
times as you, the lines. You can make, one
at the end as well. So that's one or
another way is to check the height of this
little rectangle. So that will be this one,
your 10.273 millimeters. And you can copy it. Control C, and then you can. So let's say you don't
have the lines there. You can click on it,
right-click Transform, Move, and you can move
it horizontally 0. And here control V for your, the height of this, basically, and then copy it. And it will do the same thing. But they control the
method is quite good. It's quicker, in my
opinion than the one. We are, the lines and the grid. The next thing we're
going to do is to add the days here for the month. And we'll do that
in the next lesson.
4. Let's Add The Dates: So we've made the
grid in the lines. Now we need to add the days. So we need the text tool. Just click there or I think
it's T on your keyboard. Let's see. Yes, T on your keyboard. And click once. And I'm going to
add the number 22. And there is a reason for that. I'm not just a crazy I won't
start the month with 22, but 22 is the largest number, the widest, and let's
say number between 131. So it takes the
most space across. And that is important
when we want to align the number
with the right cell. So let's make it a bit bigger. And I would advise you to choose your font now so you don't have to
change them afterwards. And I quite like
this type of font. I'm not sure if, because
I've bought some fonts, I'm not sure if
this was already in the Adobe Illustrator or not. Probably, but just choose
your font that you like. And if you want,
you can purchase some fonts and upload
it on the program. I'm going to use this one. And it's okay. I think the sides
and everything. So what I do is I will
click on the square, then Alt Shift, and
click on the number. Then let go shift. So don't press anything and
click on the square again. And if you can see, it
will be a darker blue, the line around the square. So now we can align the
number with the square. So I clicked this one
horizontal align center. And it will align the number Perfectly above the rectangle. Alright? And then we need
to copy this across. And they control D doesn't
really work all the time. I mean, we can contain show you. So you click, you hold the
Alt key and the Shift, and you drag the number. And then if we do control D, if you see here it moves it, it doesn't move it properly. So you would have to
align them by hand. And that's a bit boring. So what we need to do is to check the width
of the rectangle. So we go to transform, you selected go to transform
and is this one here. So copy this Control C. And then we click in
the number and we go to Transform and
Move horizontal. We paste that number
and vertical. We want 0. As you can see, it's moved it along here. There's one more thing
actually I need to do and I forgot to do before, and is to align it
center as well. So that will move
it a little bit. But it's a good
thing I remembered. So again, Let's do that again. So shift number, click on
this again and align center. Okay? Because if you don't put it in the center of the deck square, it might also move
it in the wrong way. So let's do that again. Move, transform, move, and
paste our number there. And then we copied. And now control,
this should work. So we do control D. And as you can see, it's align it perfectly above the rectangle,
a little rectangle. Now, for this, I'm afraid
don't allow any quick trick. We have to change this
into the numbers. And I can speed this up for you, but you have to do this by hand, but it's not too many likely. So as you can see, because we align center, it would align it
when you change it, still in the center. Alright, so these are
the numbers done. And what we can do now we can add the title habit tracker. So we press T on the
T on the keyboard and we write habit tracker. Then if you want to come
out of the text tool, you can either press the selection tool here
on the arrow on the left, like that, or you can hold
down the Control key. Click on the artboard, let go the Control
key and press V for the Selection tool. If you are in the
text tool and new Click here, you might
get another textbooks. Or if you click V here,
it just writes v. So Control click and then v. Alright, and then we
can do this bigger. So let's see something
like that. Maybe too big. Then you can choose
your font here. I quite like this one, this one, I'm sure I bought it. I don't remember where
probably from Creative Market, but it is a purchased font. But I quite like it. So just choose a font that you like and you can put your
habit tracker here, or you can put it on this
side, whichever you like. And then we can add, for example, the year and month. So again, T. And it just
keeps the last font used. So we can put, oops, yeah, I can spell. And then we can change
this to different. So this one, something like
that and make it smaller. So I like for, for
the year and month, I like to use a font
that is quite legible. And then we can pick one of these lines all down the
Alt key to make a copy. So you can write to the
year here and then you can copy the text box as
well the same way. And copied the line again. And then double-click in here. And you can put month k. And
if you want, you can group. So you click and drag, and you select both of them. If you click and drag over
the text and the line, you select both of
them and control G to group and click and drag. Whoops, not enough. Or you can right-click
and group. Then you can move it easily. And I quite like
to do it this way. Habit tracker here. And this one here. If you see these lines, these pink lines
appearing is because I have smart guides on. So if I don't have it on, you want give it the pink line, I think is quite
nice when you're doing this type of
work to have them on because I'm helps you
with placing things. So this line, if
you double-click, you get inside the group. And I can put this line, see the smart guides
come on and it tells you exactly that is exactly
aligned to the top one. And then you double-click outside the group
to come out of it. And I think this is pretty
much similar to this one. The next thing that we
need to do, if you like, you can avoid putting the month there and put
this little square. And you can, for example, check this or circle
it. I get an ellipse. You can circle it like
that with your red marker. And you say, okay, this was May. And then the next one. The next one. Alright, so we will do
that in the next lesson.
5. Let's Add The Months Grid: Alright, now we're going to add that little rectangle
with the monks. So to do that, we need, so we don't need this.
We can delete it. We need to move this this side. Of course, you can put it, you can arrange it
the way you like, but I'm going to
put it this way. And then we do a rectangle. So M on the keyboard. Or actually, I'm just going to do it the old-fashioned way, like that, Click and drag. So I can have an
idea how big it is. And of course we don't want
any filling, just the stroke. And I might put it 0.5. Okay, and then we go to
object like we did before. And we go to path, and we go to split into grid. And we need three rows and four columns
for the 12 months. Alright. The stroke a
little bit less still. Okay, so now we need
the name of the month. So T on your keyboard. And we write the first month. So we can choose at this
point the font that you like. I might just leave it this way. Actually, which one did we
use for this one is good to sort of keep some
sort of consistency. So this was Myriad Pro okay, so I'm going to
leave it like that. And I'm going to do
it aligned center. And I will align again
this with the square. So click on the box, Shift-click on the text and
then click on the box again and then Align,
Horizontal Align. And this time I'm going
to do a vertical align. So it's right in the center. Alright, now we need to
know the width of the box. So Transform and
this, this one here. So Control C because we're going to do the same
thing that we did before. So I'm selected right-click
Transform Move. And we need to paste the
number that we copied. And then vertical we need 0
and copy it and then Control D. Then what I'm
going to do is I'm going to actually select the box again and
we need the height. So transform. And we copy this one control C. And then hold down the Shift key and
select all of the text, right-click, transform and move. And this time we
want a 0 horizontal and Control V. Paste. The number that
we copied before. And as you can see,
it's moving them down. So Copy and then Control D. And we have our
text everywhere. Now we need to
unfortunately changed by hand each one of them
for the right month. Alright, so we have our little mini calendar
here for the month. And you can make it smaller. Hold down the Shift key
and just click and drag. Or you can make it smaller. And you can make D
smaller as well. If you select everything and then hold down
the Shift key, it will make it a bit smaller if you want to
add something else. And that's it. That's your habit tracker. You can put this in the
center here if you want. If you go here to align and
if you don't have this here, you can go to Window. And this should
be aligned there. So in click there. And you can use the Horizontal Align Center and they will align it for you. I just you better there. Okay. And you can align it with the top as well of the page. So just use this one
here, vertical line top. So you can put it
however you like. I quite like it like that. And this is a simple
version of your checker. But if you want to do
something a bit more advanced, I can show you how to do something like
this, for example. So these two, they started basically like
the one we just made. However, I added some
decoration here, the back, and I kept them light. So it's printer, a
printer friendly. But you can put some color
in here if you want. And also, I added a weekly habits here at the bottom and the space
for the quarter demand. So you can do
something like that or you can add a
different decoration. And again, this is
black and white. So you can use less
ink and your printer, but you can, if you like, you can do this as a color
declaration is up to you. Okay, so I will show you
all these and how to do the little circles as well
in the next few lessons.
6. Let's Add The Decorations: In this lesson, I'm going
to show you how to add those declarations I
showed you before. So these declarations here. So what we need to do is I'd like to open the
layer panel where it says your layers and make
another layer, layer two. So I keep that, basically that
declaration is separated from the rest of my
tracker elements. And what I do normally is
also to select everything. And I'm going to group them, control G or
right-click and group. And then I'm going to
actually look everything. So control too, so I don't accidentally
move things around. Then I go to layer two. So critical layer two. And I will do another rectangle. And I'm going to start
from the bleed line. So from the red line and
the rectangle and of course to know no fill and no stroke. So this is important
because for the next step, we're going to use a script. So you will need to
download this script, but this is very easy. And I have actually a lesson where I tell you exactly how to download
the script and save it. And it's in my other class, the magical symbols create patterns collection in minutes. And the lesson is called
download the script because I use that in the
other lesson or the class. And I think it's easier to just, for you to just go in and
have a look if you need any help downloading the script. And the page is this one here, I will put a link to
my other class and this page so you can
access it easily. And what this script does, I think there's
three altogether, but allows you to do
something like that. But the cool thing I'm
going to teach you is how to substitute these
little circles with a, an object, something that you drew or you have a clip out, something that
you're indifferent, basically than just the
round circles are k. So we have our rectangle here, no fill and no stroke
and is selected. What we're going to do
once you have installed your scripts is to go
to File and scripts. And we want to go
to soccer field. And in here we can write what's the maximum size of the circles and what's
the minimum sites? You can play with
this? Of course, I'm going to just
leave it as it is. I think maybe now 20 is fine. So the color doesn't matter because we're
going to change it. So okay. And we are all of these circles. Then what we need is an element to put the
center of the circles. So we go, I have this file
here when my elements, but you can just pick
something that you like. These ones here I made a black and white copy
of each of my elements. And to do that, I will quickly show you. So you select the one that you want to do
in black and white. Hold down the Shift
key and make a copy, and then go to the
Recolor Artwork. I'm going to make
it a bit bigger. So recolor artwork,
and then you should have a gray scale
here on the right. So click on that. And
it will give you this, which is not very pretty, but you can change it
with this double arrow, randomly change color
order icon here. And you can keep
changing it until you find a combination
that you like. So this one is not bad actually. But you can keep going. But if you find
something that you like, you should press Okay straightaway
because then it won't, you won't be able
to go back. Okay. Let's say OK here. And I say no here to save
the change, the changes. And you have a black
and white vision. So you can do that. So this one is different from that one. You can do that with
all of your elements. And I'm going to pick this one. So Control C to copy it. And I'm going to paste it here. And the elements
should be at the top. So I'm going to open
this layer and you see all the little circles here and the element
is at the top. So I'm going to hide
this layer and I'm going to substitute this element
instead of the circles. So if you click here and you hold down the Shift
key and click and select all of the circles. Go to File Script and find
a replace and click there, and it will transform the
circles into the flowers. Oops. Okay. So now you have, all the circles have
become your flour. And what we can do is we can move this layer
at the bottom. So click and hold and move
it, drag it at the bottom. And if we put this back. So as you can see in here, nu is not very clear when
these elements are like this. So what I do normally is to select this layer and
put the opacity down. So that's a bit better. And I notice now that these
little rectangles are filled. So you can leave it like that. I'm going to put the
opacity a bit more down. So it's easier to, for you to fill this
little rectangles here. Or you can eliminate the fill. I'm going to switch off
this layer at the moment, and this is locked. So we go to Object Unlock, or you can do Alt Control two. And it's still grouped. So you can either do Shift Control G or
right-click and ungroup. Okay? So now we need to select
just the little rectangles. Select all of them. And I'm going to hold down Shift and deselect these lines. And now we're going to
remove the fill from here. And if I put this back on, you can see the
design through it. And maybe I can do still
a little bit later. Okay. And now you have a habit tracker with a declaration in it. And you learned how to
use the circle script as well if you want to do
the other decoration. So something like this. I'm going to pick this
element. So Control C. And I will switch off
this layer and move this here and Control V. I'm going
to make it a bit smaller. And let's see
something like that. Then we want to make a copy, a mirror copy on the other side. So if we click o for the
mirrors, then we can. I don't know if you
can see there's a little tiny blue thing here. Dot there. We can click once
and move it here. And then we start
to click and drag and hold down the Alt
key at the same time. And if you press
down the Shift key, it will move it at 90 degrees
compared to the other one. Let go of the mouse, of the the Alt and
Shift keys and press V. And now we have a mirrored
image of this flower. So it's not touching. So maybe I can put it like that. So touch. And if I select both of them, I can do Control G. And it will be grouped. And now you can put it in
the center of the page. So if it's sort of off center, you go to horizontal
align center and you have a
declaration as well. So these are different ways
of decorating your tracker. Either with something here, with some elements or with an all over pattern
type of thing. And in the next lesson
I'm going to show you how to do this for
the weekly habits. Okay, I see you in
the next lesson.
7. Weekly Habits Grid: In this lesson, we're going
to add the weekly tracker. So what I'm going to do actually
I'm going to remove this because it will show this little lines every
time you hover over it. So we'll put a light that at the moment
make it invisible. And what we need to do is to make this smaller, not bigger. So we select everything, click and drag, and then hold down the Shift key
and make it smaller. I'm actually going to group
it so it's easier to move it. K. Make this smaller as well. Alright. So the the
weekly tracker, you would need to have a five weeks because certain times you have
five weeks in a month. So it's good to add all of them. So we would need five columns. And then again, it depends on how many habits
you want to track. There's not a lot of space. So I've put here
just 123456 in here. So let's do a rectangle,
something like that. And then we go to Object
Path and split into grid. So we have, let's say five
rows and five columns. Okay. We'll give it a
little bit of a stroke. And let's see, maybe I need
to make this a bit shorter. Of course we can make it
bigger this way, like that. Okay. So here for now I'm going to group it so
it's easier to move. And we go, we need to
add the weeks here. I'm going to just grab one of these text boxes all down the
Alt key and move it here. And actually I need
to ungroup these. So because I need to do the
same thing I did before. And what I do is say click the box and then
hold down the Shift, click the text and then click
the box again and align it. And distribute already centered. Okay, maybe I put it a
bit closer like that. And I'm going to write 10 k, maybe, do it a
little bit smaller. Right? And then again, we need
to move this across, copy it across, so I check
the width of the box. So transform, this one here. So Control C, then
click on the text, right-click transform and move. So we need to paste
our measurement here, and then here we need 0. And we need to copy it. And then Control D. And we just change the
number into 234 and five. Alright, and then we need to
add this little line here. Because we can put a check here and here
you can add the date. And of course you don't
have to do it like that. You can just put a
check and that's it. You don't have to
write in the date, but if you want to, we can
add the line like this one. So for that, we just do
a, basically a line. Hold down the Shift key. And we give it a stroke. And we have delayed. And then we hold down the
Alt key and the Shift key. And I'm just going to
eyeball this one and then Control D to make
the other ones. And I think I'm going to make these lines actually
a bit thicker. So you can see the difference. There you go. Then again. We need a line here to, oops, that was grouped. Okay, Let's make delay line here to sort of rate the habit. I'm going to make
this less thick, 0.5. And then this one. So click and drag, hold down the Alt and Shift
key and then Control D. So we have our lines
were to write. And if you want, you can I'm
just going to copy this one. You can write here. Weekly habits. And of course, we
can make it smaller. You can click and drag and hold down the
Shift key to keep it, to keep the proportions. So we have this one. And then to do this here, I used a rectangle. Let's do M. And let's
do a rectangle. And I'm going to give it
no fill and a stroke. And of course you can
do whatever color you like for the stroke. To make this into a nice
sort of different shapes. You can go to Effect,
distort, and Transform. And then you can choose
this one for example. And if you have Preview on, we will let you see what
the shape would look like. So you can do it that
way or that way. So that's one option. If you do it like that. Or let's try a different one. Distort and transform. Can do something like that. So you can play with
this, of course. Or you can use this one. And you can do, can
change this one. Relative absolute. You
can change the sides. And you can change
the detail of more or less over detail. And oops, there we go. Twist. This would give you
like a banner effect, which is quite nice too. Zigzag. You can do
relative or absolute. And you can do smooth. And you can sort of change
as much as you want it. So something like that. And then you can have corners. But it will be like a
molecule, straight corners. Or you can do it smooth. So you can play with this and
see what effects you like. And you can then Let's make
a bit smaller and copy this. Then you can write
quote of the month. So maybe just a bit smaller. And your course,
you can stretch it. You can do different sorts
of effects with this. Alright? And then you can again have it either with a declaration or some delay that with
a pattern underneath. And when you print it, you will have this nice
loop pattern underneath or k. So in the next lesson, I'm going to show you how to
do this little circles here. Instead of the squares. I'll see you in the next lesson.
8. Let's Make the Dot Grid: In this lesson, I'm going
to show you how to do the circles instead of
this little squares here. So what we can do
actually is to, again, will switch
off the background. And let's see. I will ungroup this
shift Control G. And I will select all
the little squares. Let's select just the squares. If you hold down the shift
key will deselect these, are grouped them and move
them out of the way. And now what I'll do is
I'll do a little circle. Let's get the ellipse tool. And I'll do a five
millimeter circle. Okay? So this one here, I've put it here. And then I do another one. So hold down the Alt key and
the Shift and put it here. And I will select both of them. So hold down the Shift key
and select both of them. And then go to Object and down
to blend and blend option. We want a step, so
Specified Steps. And we have already two circles. So we need another 29
to make a total of 31. Because it will count
these two circles already. So nothing has happened. But don't worry, because
we need to make the plane. So we go back to object, we'll go back to
blend and we make. And you have all of
the little circles. And if you want, you
can expand this. So you go to Object, Expand. Well actually I think we
need to because then we can ungroup them if we
need them and grouped. And then what we
need to do is click, hold down the Alt key and the Shift key and make
a Copy and then Control D until you reach the end. And there you go. You go your circle template, there, your circle
habit tracker. In a matter of just
a few minutes. Another thing I
wanted to show you is if you want to make
it even more fancy, we can add a shadow
to the letters here. So if we selected go to
Effect, Stylize, Drop Shadow. So at the moment is just
like very diffused, but you can change these. So for example, you can change the offset from one
side to the other. You can change the like if it's going up and down as well with the way you can
change the Blair. How blurry it is. I quite like it like this, but you can make it very blurry. So maybe something like that. And then you can change the
opacity so you can make it more opaque or less opaque. So probably sometime later. And then you can give it a
color as well if you want. And then Okay. And now your habit tracker
as a drop shadow in there. You can add that to all of your bigger texts, for example. Or if you have, let's see, I haven't tried this. So let's add it. Effect. Stylize, drop shadow. You can add to your
decorations as well. And it looks quite nice. So I wouldn't overdo it and
put a drop shadow everywhere. But maybe just here
and decoration. That looks quite nice. Then if you want to
save this as a PDF, or you need to do is to
go to File and Save As. And down here, choose
PDF and give it a name, of course, and save. And then in here, it will
give you some options. You can save it as an
illustrator default. And I think this is
quite a big file. Sometimes I just save
it as a smallest sides. For example, it depends where
you want to do with this. But if it's just for yourself, you don't want to
sell it to anything, then probably that
would be alright. Then in here where it
says marks and bleeds, you can actually add trim marks, which will show you where to cut the paper once it's printed. You don't have to, of course. But I can show you an example. So if we click here
and save the PDF, just say okay here. And then we'll go to the PDF. So you can see here the
little signs at the corners drew lines that will
tell you where to cut the paper when you print it. And of course, if you
don't check that, if you don't check this chamber marks and then you will want to have
those those lines. Okay. So in the meanwhile, my
computer went a bit crazy and deleted all the changes
that we did before. So just a word of caution, keep saving your work because your computers can
go crazy sometimes. But that's all I
wanted to show you. I hope you have
enjoyed your class and I can't wait to see
your habit trackers.
9. Bonus - Transfer The Tracker To Adobe InDesign: In this bonus lesson, I want to show you how to put your tracker into an
InDesign document. For example, you might want to make a little
booklet out of it. Maybe put it on Amazon ADP. And you can do like 12 pages and you can do
a year habit tracker. So to do that, I would
save this as a JPEG. So let's save one of them. And File Save As, File Export, export As. And we have JPEG here. So I'm going to
use the art board. So click, Use that
board and click the range and we're just
going to use outward one. Otherwise it will save
imaginary both of them. And just put habit tracker export. And then we can live with
CMYK if you want to print it. And I would put
here a list Andrew, 50 dpi because, um, when you put it on the side, otherwise it might
not be very clear. We try with this one and five. Okay, and then if
we go to InDesign, so we create a new file. And I think that
one was 11 by 8.5, so it was a letter sites. And we use the
landscape orientation. And I'm going to
leave this year. So if there's something
that you want to print, you can leave the gutter 0.1667
inches and some margins, 0.5 inches and create. Okay. And then what I'm going
to do is I'm going to go to the master document. So double-click and it
looks like nothing happens. But if you look down here, there is a master written. So it means that you
are in the A-Master. And this is because
whatever you put into a master will be transferred
to the other pages. And they're actually
going to show you, you can choose the
number of pages beforehand before
creating the document. But if you forget like me, you can just right-click
here and insert pages. You can right-click
either on the page or on here, it's fine. And then you can insert
another 11 pages, so that will make 12 altogether. And then if we go
back to the a master, we can draw a
rectangle like this. And these pink lines that
you see here, the margins. So if you want to see the
page without the margins, you press W on the keyboard. At the moment does
nothing to see. But if you press W again, you will see the margins. And then what I'm going to do is select the rectangle
and press Control D. And that will allow you
to insert a picture. There. Was the picture. Here's the picture. And it will insert it
inside that rectangle. And as you can see, now we have, if we double-click
in the page here, now we have this document
in all of the a masters. But because it's like this
little so double-page, we will need to
do the same thing in the other page
of the a master to have the tracker
page in here as well. I hope this makes sense. So when I'm moving the page, I just press down the bar, click and drag and it
will move the page. So I can select everything and hold down the Alt and Shift key and move this to this page. And as you can see now is put the page in these ones as well. And if I double-click here, then we have the tracker
in all of the pages. So you created a little booklet. I suppose if you want to
put this in Amazon ADP, you should do this
the normal portrait. So I'm not going to
save this probably. So let's create a new file. This one here, and
then the portrait. And you can unclick
facing pages. You can just leave it. And then you can put here 12
pages altogether and Create. Now we have a different layout. And in here, this picture, we can rotate it that way. So it should be that way now. So it's the same direction then you want to
put in your page. And the same thing. So
we'd go to the A-Master, create a rectangle, and Control D. And
we put that picture. And then we copy this
down the Alt key. And now we have this picture
in all of the pages. And to zoom in and out quickly, I just hold down the Alt key
and scroll with the mouse. So here you have it. You can print this in the GDP. And I have a class on, on how to upload and do all your page preparation
and everything as well in Skillshare so you
can check that out and it will give you
all the information you need to do this properly, but you can just do this
for yourself as well. You can add another page with, for example, a
little cover here. And you can just print this
for yourself if you want. Or you can even
do this pages for an Etsy shop and
you can sell it as a downloadable printable page. There's lots you
can do with this. Alright, I hope you have
enjoyed this little bonus. And good luck with your project.
