How do I design for magazine layout?

Single Page/Double Truck

You may be designing only a portion of the page, or you may be illustrating across two pages. The single page or double truck (two-page) layout are appropriate for both articles and advertising. If you are designing an article with illustration, consider the elements of advertising - if any - on the page. How will it affect your layout?
