Tim Robertson MyMac.com Book Review,
By Tim E Robertson "Publisher MyMac" (Battle Creek, Mi United States) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: QuarkXPress Power Shortcuts: Productivity Shortcuts for QuarkXPress 4 and 5 (Paperback)
Learning new ways to use QuarkXPress, specifically many of the keyboard shortcuts to use while using QuarkXPress.The book is 145 pages, not including the index. Each keyboard shortcut that is explained works with Mac and Windows, either platform specific or both computer platforms. Each is listed as either / or, so you can skip a shortcut if it does not apply to your computing environment. The book is broke out into six main sections, each representing a different section of QuarkXPress. They are Palettes, Interface, Menus, Moving, Text, and Pictures and Lines. This is very handy, enabling you to quickly browse and find the keyboard shortcut you want to learn. As there are over 400 shortcuts listed in the book, you will find yourself going back to this book often. Other sections of the book cover Function Keys, Context-Sensitive Menus, Special Characters, The ANSI Character Set, and The Ten Best-Kept Secrets. Like most books, this one also sports an index, though compared to many other books on the market today, QuarkXPress Power Shortcuts has an exceptional index. Bravo to PeachPit Press! While this is a relatively thin book, it is packed with great content for any QuarkXPress user. I would give this book a perfect five out of five rating if not for the larger price tag. All in all, QuarkXPress Power Shortcuts makes a great reference for QuarkXPress users. This kind of documentation should be with a printed manual that ships with the product itself. MacMice Rating: 4 out of 5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tim
