We have created this brochure for Bowe’s Supporters to use in their work to both tell others his story and to invite others to advocate on his behalf.

Permission for the use of original material in a manner that is noncommercial in nature, and that is in conjunction with the goals of this site as outlined HERE, is granted for printed publishing and online publishing when proper attribution is given; a backlink to this site must be provided immediately adjacent to any borrowed material that is posted to any webpage.

INSTRUCTIONS

This is a one sheet brochure printed on both sides. The files for the pages are delivered as PDF files. This brochure was created keeping the user in mind who would be printing a copy master from their computer printer and copying from the copy master on a copy machine. The brochure was designed to be printed on white paper. For reasonable quality, this brochure needs to be printed on 24 pound or heavier paper; using paper stock of any less weight can result in a poorly finished product. The face-side (outside) is provided in two different choices. The color choice has a color picture of Bowe. Using the color choice will result in the best brochure. If you are unable to make color copies, there is a black & white choice. We made the black & white choice for you because it is not recommended that you make black and white copies from a color picture; doing so makes the image appear “flattened”, sometimes grainy, and poorly contrasted.

The all-text side (inside) comes in just one color way.

If you are taking copies of the front and back of the brochure to the copy center, be sure to print out the BEST copy that your printer can make. Print the face-side (outside) and the all-text side (inside) on separate sheets. Remember that, in lieu of making master copies from your computer printer, many copy centers can receive a file by email or off of a USB stick- some copy centers can even go online and download a file for you.

IMPORTANT NOTE: It is recommended that you download the PDF files to your computer rather than printing directly from the PDF files on the website. The reason for this is that the files that have been created to be downloaded to your computer have been sized to include a leading edge for your printer. This file will also fill the page better. If you have no choice but to print directly from the website, you will want to use the file that is labeled for printing from the web. If you print from the web, your folds will be made a little differently from what is shown in the samples below. You will need to line up the first fold so the left edge is placed a little more to the left of the dot marks mentioned below. For the second fold, the right edge will be placed a little more to the right of what is outlined below. In both cases, there will be a very small overlap made by the front flap to make the brochure easier to open.
