Graphic Designers... Please Help with a Tri-Fold Brochure Template

I was just offered a new job and they want me to create a standard tri-fold brochure right away but I only have very basic Photoshop skills. And right away means tomorrow!

If anyone has a template that I can edit in Photoshop that would be great. I only have Photoshop elements on my PC and I have no idea what kind of software they want me to use once I start but I am not familiar with In Design, Illustrator or Quark.

Any help would be very appreciated!

Thank you :)

I think they are looking for something more fancy. I know Photoshop isn't really the right software but it's the only one I know. Am hoping to find a standard template with the margins set up that I can go in and add images, text, etc.

Hmm, you can probably find some free ones through google. I found this one at:

I freelance doing design work so let me know if you run into any problems.

Hey - Since it's something you have do quickly - you can download a free trial of PS. You should def. learn the other programs if you are going to be working in graphic design. Make sure you save your PS doc in high res so your copy does not show up blurry. You can even download a trial of Publisher if you are on a PC and want to get it done quick and easy. Are you familiar with Publisher?

Ask them what the dimensions on the Tri-fold are. You can draw out the dimensions with the rulers and grids on PS.

Congrats on the job! What kind is it?
