To select a layout for the newsletter:

  • Open Pages. (Double-click the hard drive button on your Desktop, and then click Applications>iWork>Pages. Or double-click the Pages button in your Dock.)
  • Click Newsletters from the list on the left.
  • Double-click the Education Newsletter template. A pre-made newsletter will appear. You'll see a green title box, nonsense text (called Lorem Ipsum) used by publishers to indicate where text eventually will be, and photos.


  • Scroll up and down. Notice that the newsletter is just one page long.
  • Click the Pages button at the far left of the toolbar at the top of the Pages window to choose among a variety of page layouts, as well as to add new pages.
  • This classroom newsletter will be two pages long. Information about the class will appear on the front and back of a single page. Click "2 & 3 Column Inside." After a few seconds, a second page will appear with two columns on the top half of the page and three columns on the bottom.
  • To change the number of columns on either page, scroll to the correct page, and then click the Column button in the toolbar and select the number of columns.
  • Save your work (Click File>Save).
