Because I've compiled a listing of 5 short definitions for you that better explains what <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">desktop publishing</span> is below:<br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">(1)</span> A generic title given to the introduction of personal computers (PC) to typesetting, page composition and image handling. The combination of all these gives electronic control within a single system of what was traditionally a specialist and segmented operation.<br /><div><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">(2)</span> Desktop publishing (DTP) software was originally developed to allow computer users to create professional-looking newsletters, magazines and brochures, complete with pictures, diagrams and colour. ...<br /></div><div><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">(3)</span> Commonly used term for computer-generated printed materials such as newsletters and brochures.<br /></div><div><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">(4)</span> Using a personal computer or workstation to produce high quality printed documents. A desktop publishing system allows you to use different typefaces, specify various margins and justifications, and embed illustrations and graphs directly into the text. ...<br /> </div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">(5) </span>The use of a computer to create documents that can be printed. Specialized software is used to add copy and graphics to the document, which is then outputted to a printer or typesetting equipment.<br /><br /></div><div>And there you have it in a nutshell! Simple right? I thought so, as I've been doing <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Desktop Publishing</span> professionally since September 2000, and it's super rewarding, especially if you're a creative type. So <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">desktop publishing</span> is great if you're looking for a simple way to make your business stand out, or if you're looking for a cheap and easy way to advertise your business with flair. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Desktop Publishing</span> offers the art and project resources you need to design professional printed materials that create that perfect impression.</div><div><br /></div><div>For even more information on <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">desktop publishing</span>, <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desktop_publishing">click here</a></span> to learn more.</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2334118843536551182-7470763855833697041?l=seechaneldesign.blogspot.com'/></div>Chanelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16143659780111461254noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2334118843536551182.post-67411225032652263242008-06-23T15:10:00.002-05:002008-06-23T16:00:04.677-05:00CWD For All Your Design & Printing Needs.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j4/cnrward/CWD%20Art/CWDBUSINESSLOGO.jpg"><img style="display:block;
