FAQs

How do I maintain the vintage look while customizing a template?

When customizing, consider using the original font styles and color scheme provided on the last pages of each template. Adjust text and images within the separate text boxes to retain the uniformity of the design overall. Select period-appropriate images and wording to reinforce the historical theme, and ensure any textured backgrounds or borders remain intact, as these details are crucial to the vintage aesthetic. Following this, you can maintain the vintage aesthetic of your newspaper during personalization.

Can I use these templates for a modern-themed newspaper project?

Yes, while these templates have a vintage style, they come with exceptional adaptability, allowing for modern applications. Adjust the fonts and colors to fit a contemporary theme, prioritizing neat section spacing and clear headings to achieve a professional, modern look.

How to add new pages without affecting the template's thematic consistency?
