• Use the “place” function, within InDesign, to insert stories and images into the InDesign document (All articles must be used to populate your newspaper).
• Use of text boxes and “flow” (text boxes that break and continue on other pages or other areas of the document). Also, at least two columns per story. 
• Use “text wrap” to have text in a text box follow the contour of an inserted image (on all the different images)
• The use of layers in this fashion:
• Text will be on a layer designated specifically for text (and labeled “text”
• Images and graphics will be on a layer designed specifically for inserted images (and labeled “images and graphics”)

• A layer specifically for the “masthead” of the publication
• A layer specifically for story photos
