Brochures with illustrator/acrobat or photoshop?

[morkys]

Does anyone have experience designing and printing brochures with either of Adobe Illustrator, Acrobat or Illustrator? I tried a brochure template for photoshop and it didn't work out properly. Not sure if it has to do with my printer, since the professional printer will likely be different. Still, the result I got was offset so the folds didn't match.

thanx

Photoshop is not a publication software - it is for graphics. Does a bad job on text.

Illustrator would be your best bet out of the options you stated.

try getting a trial of ms publisher that might produce better Results

MS Publisher is good, and I use it almost every day, but most print shops prefer Illustrator files for reproduction.

I have MS publisher myself. I suppose I could try it, but for the reasons Bogie stated, I was hoping to use the Adobe Illustrator we have. I believe we're going to want to have it printed professionally. I'll try that this time. :)
