EASILY ORgANIZE ALL YOUR pHOTOS, RENDERS AND SkETCHES.
STEp 1
InDesign is set up as a content
organizer, not a content creator. As
such you will be placing pre-created
content into the program. All of
your sketches, drawings, renders
and photos will be “placed” into the
document. To make this process
easy, organize all of your images
ahead of time into folders you will
remember. To start placing your
content go to File>Place... (Ctrl+D
or Cmd+D)

Navigate to your images, select
one or multiple and hit “Open.”
Left clicking will now place each
piece of content into your portfolio
sequentially.
OR
Create a shape with the pen, shape
or frame tools and, with the shape
selected, place an image into it.
Tip: Ctrl/Cmd+shift while
dragging will resize images
proportionally.
Repeat these steps to insert all of
your content into your portfolio.
Be careful though: clicking on a
currently placed image while placing
new ones will replace it with the
new image.
