Alignment Slug- Where you put author information, information about type of paper, special oreder links, and other instructions for printnig process.

  1. Nothing should be placed on the page arbitarily. Every item should have a visual connection with somthing else on the page.
  2. Don't just throw informarmation around.
  3. When items are aligned, it creates a strong cohesive unit.
  4. Even is the aligned items are seperated, an invisible line connects them.
  5. You dont need to use a center alignment.

Unity is very important in concept design. There has to be a visual connection between elements.

Avoid using more than 1 text allignment; don't allign to the left and then to the right.
