by Gordon Woolf

Publication Production Using Pagemaker melds for the first time expertise in publication production and the specifics of using PageMaker to achieve that task.This is the specialist information you need to supplement the manuals, the kind of information which comes from the author’s four decades of practical experience in producing all kinds of publications. Here you’ll find out how - Improve the layout and production process.
- Use templates and ‘Styles’ to achieve speed and consistency.
- Unlock the mysteries of ‘scripting’ and ‘tags’.
- Avoid repetitive tasks by learning how to sit back and watch PageMaker do the work.
- Organise your workflow and relieve stress.

There are templates, scripts and more on the book website.
- This book reveals the ‘secrets’ discovered by PageMaker users over many years.
- This book’s website provides scripts and templates worth many hundreds of dollars.
