I was extremely happy with Teach Yourself PageMaker 6.5. It did a great job of walking me through the ins and outs of this really nice peice of software. It was definately worth every penny.

Very well written and easy to follow. I found this book to be a fantastic reference if I found myself stuck and I needed answers quickly. Loved the Weekend Tour.

Despite what beginning DTP workers might think, you can't write, edit, and lay out any sort of book in less than a week, and you can't become an expert in less than 90 minutes. However, if you're willing to invest the time to learn how to do things right, this book will teach you everything you need to know. I'm using it both in my high school classes and in some courses I teach at our community college, and find that my students like the writing style, learn from the examples, and finish with a solid grounding in PageMaker techniques. Although Adobe doesn't seem to be promoting this program any more, there are lots of us who still find it useful, and I'm glad there are good books like this one available to teach PageMaker's fundamentals.
