Before applying a grid you must understand the requirements of the work being produced.
Using more columns gives you more scope for arranging and accommodating text and illustrations.
Disadvantages of having too many columns in a grid are: lines will be narrow, small type needs to be used.
For stats, figures and graphs- use 4 columns per page.
The narrower a column is, the smaller the typeface
Do not rely on just one set of thumbnails.
Applying type to columns
10 point type / 15 point leading
Column length of 15cm= 15 pt leading=10 lines per third=30 lines every 15 cm

To set up for a concertina:
Untick these:
Drag and drop the pages next to each other
