Steps for Creating Slices

1. Open the final InDesign document
2. Save file in two places. Name both files job#-FIN-[description]-Markup.indd (We like to keep job number as a reference for the future) to a folder called "Working File" in the appropriate Greenbox slices folder (data/CREATIVE/QUEST DIAGNOSTICS/TEMPLATES/DIGITAL/Greenbox/Slices) as well as the BUILD folder in the respective job.
3. Now you can go ahead and customize the layers in your INDD to use in aiding the slicing process.
4. Make a layer called "Stroke" and add a 1pt black rule
5. Make a layer called "Markup." Here we will add circle to the customizable areas of the piece. Please do not change the point size of the fonts or strokes on the circle. For a model of how the markup should be made, please refer to data/CREATIVE/QUEST DIAGNOSTICS/TEMPLATES/DIGITAL/Greenbox/Slices/IAR Letters/Printed/Working Files/IAR-AllLetters-Copy_Markup.indd.
