Just Judy provides careful, skilled page layout
at a reasonable price.
Batting Basics (564K sample) by John White, is subtitled Science of the Perfect Swing and is aimed at baseball and softball teachers and coaches. Shown are the front and back cover plus several pages including the table of contents, preface, and acknowledgments. The content on these 6-by-9-inch pages is shown centered, but the printed book has wider inside margins and narrower outside margins. This second edition was published in 2011.
Legacy in Words is a memoir (896K sample) published in 2009. Written and illustrated by Beth Aaland, it is comprised of autobiographical nonfiction essays plus some fictional stories and poems. Just Judy copy-edited the text, organized the content (which had existed as separate "doodles" and writings tucked away over the years), and suggested the title.
The Community Alliance for Social Awareness (CASA) published a resource handbook (344K sample) for parents in 2003. The front and back covers plus several of the 5.5-by-8.5-inch inside pages of the spiral-bound handbook are shown. (Just Judy also designed CASA's logo.)
The tri-fold brochure for a dance school (164K) is shown unfolded. Valley Dance Theatre has been a Just Judy client since 1993.
The brochure for a concert series (820K) is shown here as four 8.5-by-11-inch pages. Each brochure was printed on (both sides of) an 11-by-17-inch sheet of glossy white paper which was folded first in half, then in thirds for mailing. Just Judy has designed season brochures for Del Valle Fine Arts since 1998.
A tri-fold brochure for a local NOW chapter (132K) is shown with each of its six panels as a separate page.

2) East Bay Therapy, a company which provides diagnoses and therapy related to speech and language;
3) a guitar-playing singer-songwriter who was interested in jobs as a handyman in addition to music-related work;
4) a fine art photographer;
5) a financial services company (now defunct, with contact information disguised at the client's request);
6) a landscape service (Just Judy also designed the logo).
The dance performance link (260K) shows front and back covers of the program for Valley Dance Theatre's 25th-anniversary show and sample pages from the program booklet. The May 2005 booklet was printed on double-sided 8.5-by-11-inch sheets of paper, folded, so that each page was 8.5 inches high and 5.5 inches wide. Huyen Tran provided the elephant artwork.
The orchestra performance link (200K) shows a 4-page program. Each program was printed on a 2-sided tabloid-sized sheet of paper, folded to make four 8.5-by-11-inch pages. Just Judy has formatted the concert programs of the Livermore-Amador Symphony since 1992.
This Veterans-Hall gala flyer (288K) was used to publicize a dance that celebrated the reopening of the building after its renovation. The City of Pleasanton, California, celebrated the completion of the renovation in 2007 with a ceremony (for which Just Judy published the program booklet) and a dance. The $19.33 dance admission for couples emphasized that the Hall was originally dedicated in 1933.

The black-and-white treble clef had been used in Del Valle's literature for years but prior to August 2006 there had been no logo: incorporating the organization's name was one project specification!
As the client wrote, "… The name tetradot literally means 4 dots, so I am considering various diagrams that contain four dots. …"
The client requested a knight chess piece with a horse's head as part of the logo for this business in California with expertise in precast concrete.
A takeout menu (188K) is shown as six pages, but it actually was printed as a tri-fold brochure on a single sheet of paper.
