This reference book covers all aspects of version 3.3 for Mac and Windows users from start to finish. QuarkXpress is the country's bestselling page layout program, but the program is far from intuitive and can easily baffle beginner and intermediate users alike. This book is geared directly toward the QuarkXpress user who doesn't want to be burdened with extraneous technical information and yet doesn't want to be cheated out of essential and valuable fundamentals. This book covers: what QuarkXpress is all about and why you should use it; how to get up and running with QuarkXpress, using real life design examples; what you need to know about using graphics from other applications and how to get them into your QuarkXpress documents; simple concepts of document layout - including the creation of master pages and templates; the ten commandments of QuarkXpress, ten best keyboard shortcuts, and ten best layout and design tips; includes a sample document signature insert. Galen Gruman and Barbara Assadi have used, taught and reviewed desktop publishing technology for many years.
