Collaborating in Google Docs
Creating a brochure in Google Docs is ideal if you’re working with at least one other individual on it or if you plan on having it reviewed by someone before it’s finalized. Google Doc’s sharing and editing features allow you to grant permission to others so they can edit the brochure directly themselves or alternatively leave suggestions for you to review and incorporate into your own edits.
