The special photos are spread through the 40 pages of the English-language daily. However, the text remained in its regular format.
The three-dimensional effect was also applied to the advertisements and to a special section called Our Pride, published in celebration of the newspaper recently winning the World Association of Newspapers and News Publishers' (WAN-IFRA) Best Overall Design award in Asia-Pacific and Middle East, the Economic Times revealed.
