5.0 out of 5 stars A must have for desktop publishers!, September 21, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Desktop Publishing StyleGuide (Paperback)
This is an excellent reference manual that supports both the beginner and the more advanced desktop publisher. The layout of the book is particularly helpful in locating materials for specific projects. I can easily find examples of a publication type to use for a reference. I also never realized the importance of choosing the correct paper. This chapter was very enlightening. As a new web designer, I found the information regarding design levels especially useful. This book will be on my reference shelf for a long time.

As a student of desktop publishing I can only say I wish I had found this book sooner; it would have made things a lot easier. With this book, you will need no other on this subject.
