Tools

  • Adobe Illustrator

    Due to the legal nature of the subject matter, it was important to illustrate and simplify key concepts. Graphics and illustrations created in Adobe Illustrator were used to communicate these topics in a relatable way.

  • Adobe InDesign

    One component of the compliance guide is a booklet shared in print and as a PDF. Adobe InDesign was used to create a master template with various layouts that included graphics and text descriptions of related topics.
