Nah adobe exchange has real awful templates. I'm looking for brochures with all different kinds of folds that sort of thing.

I'm not sure but I seem to remember there were a few in the tutorials on the CD - for Indesign...
but there's so many things that usually need to be changed that it doesn't pay to use a template... I recently made a wall calendar and I got this template... and I had to re-make everything.... templates are only good for really simple stuff... if your brochure is a little out of the standard.... you still got to do it all over again...

Well I’m not looking for something with boxes that say “insert picture and text here.” I was more interested in if there was a site that provided some nice documents with the bleeds, gutters, and all that already in the document. I totally agree it doesn’t pay to use a template for a calendar for example. But if I’m doing a brochure and I’m trying to decide if I’m going to do a tri fold, a gate fold, exedra, there’s only so many ways I can set the document up so that the paper will fold properly.

I suppose I’ll just end up making my own like I have been. I thought it wouldn’t hurt to ask if there was a nice recourse out there someone knew of though. ;)

edit: I'll have to check my idesign cd out. I have a feeling most of what you're talking about comes with the indesign/pagemaker edition though. Thanks for taking the time to help me out Mihai.

You might contact the print house you are going to use. They usually have templates they use...
