aspects of layout
- order/ sequences of the content
- fluidity/ flow
- length/ amount of content
- relation between image and text and graphics
- relation between blank and filled pages
- spaces on a page in general
- pacing (pages and spread)

--> regarding overall appearance of the content and the publication

A dummy can be used in every step of the process, but does not necessarily have to be translated into individual physical outputs. Depends on what you need and if you can combine certain aspects. In general creating a physical implementation helps to clarify and refine your idea.
