General comments
The Florence History Booklet consists of 77 pages including the front and back cover. Only a selection of pages is provided to demonstrate the quality of the entire booklet. All of the sources for the images and information are cited in the bibliography in the booklet.
The document must be submitted as a single PDF file and also in the original format if it is different.
Criterion A: Initial investigation
The client, Mr Clive Matthews, has been identified. There is a clear reference to the interview.
The present situation and the inadequacies are explained and there is a clear indication of the problems that a new solution should address.
Criterion B: Analysis
In this situation the client indicated that they felt that a desktop-published booklet would be the best solution for the problem. Other solutions were considered by the client not to be feasible.
The requirement specifications are clearly indicated and the specific performance criteria can be used to evaluate the success of the desktop-published booklet.
A range of detailed reasons justify why the solution was chosen. There is also an analysis of the feasibility of producing a desktop-published booklet.

Criterion E: Product development
The structure and organization of the Florence History Booklet are clearly indicated using diagrams accompanied by explanations.
At least three complex techniques are used to address the client’s requirements and are justified using screenshots accompanied by explanation. There are some minor omissions. However, using a “best-fit” approach, 8 marks are awarded. Sources are cited in the bibliography of the booklet for all of the content material (images and information). The source for the typography principles is also cited within the report as a resource.
The client was consulted throughout the development of the booklet.
The word count for this criterion is approximately 1,015 words and the student must ensure that the additional documentation for other criteria will enable it to conform to the overall limit of 2,000 words.
