Microsoft Publisher by Design, Third Edition

An Example-Packed Guide to Desktop Publishing Using Microsoft Publisher

Microsoft Press announces MICROSOFT PUBLISHER BY DESIGN, a hands-on design
companion and comprehensive user's guide for Publisher 3.0, which helps
users of all levels easily create polished, professional-quality
publications to meet their business and home needs. 

MICROSOFT PUBLISHER BY DESIGN is really two books in one: a comprehensive
guide to using Publisher's tools, and instructions for creating
professional-quality projects with Microsoft Publisher. The book is packed
with design examples and procedures. The tools section provides thorough,
descriptions of the layout, text, and graphics tools readers will use in
Publisher. The projects section walks users through the creation of
publications for business and home, including: 

* Logos 
* Advertisements 
* Letterhead 
* Mail-order catalogs 
* Party invitations 
* Business forms 
* Newsletters 
* Organizational charts 
* Three-fold brochures 
* Posters 

These projects illustrate good design techniques and strategies and feature
a specific Publisher tool so readers get practice using them in context. 

The book is highly graphical and easy to follow. Procedures are illustrated
to guide readers through the projects. Troubleshooting tips give the
answers to frequently asked questions, power tips offer practical advice
about product features and desktop design, cross-references make
information easily accessible, and keyboard shortcuts explain how to
access Publisher commands quickly.
