Synopsis

Adobe PageMaker 7.0 delivers the features you've asked for: seamless integration with Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, the ability to merge text and images from database and spreadsheet applications, and ways to view and create PDFs--and even open and edit QuarkXPress documents--directly in PageMaker, to name just a few. PageMaker 7.0 for Windows and Macintosh: Visual QuickStart Guide takes you step-by-step through these and all the other key features of this award-winnning page-layout stalwart.

Novices and pros alike will find this an indispensable guide to the latest version of PageMaker. If you're new to the program--or to page layout entirely--you can start with PageMaker basics: its desktop environment, creating a new document, and working with layouts, margins, and palettes. You'll never get lost in dense text or jargon. The book's clear, concise directions and plentiful screenshots ensure that you stay on track. Those who've worked with previous versions of PageMaker can use the page tabs to delve into more advanced topics, like the intricacies of type management, working with graphics, and putting the finishing touches on files for output in print or on the Web.
