Now anyone using Microsoft Publisher can become accomplished in desktop
publishing with MICROSOFT PUBLISHER BY DESIGN, from Microsoft Press. This
example-packed guide is so easy to use and understand that you'll be
producing professional-looking documents in no time at all.

Imagine the feeling of satisfaction when your first newsletter--designed
and created by you--hits the streets. Impress your coworkers and clients
with eye-catching letterhead and logos.

Author Luisa Simone shows you how to create great-looking printed pieces,
such as newsletters, letterhead, logos, and advertisements and bring them
to life with tools such as pictures, decorative borders, and distinctive
typefaces. Microsoft Publisher's unique intuitive interface can actually
guide you through the design process.

All of the exciting features of Microsoft Publisher are detailed in
MICROSOFT PUBLISHER BY DESIGN. The step-by-step design projects in the
book teach you how to create projects such as:

* An original logo and letterhead for your company
* Business forms for everyday use
* Eye-catching advertisements and brochures
* Organization charts
* Appealing mail-order catalogs
* A company newsletter

After mastering the basics, you learn about Microsoft Publisher's host of
tools--including templates, clip art, and the PageWizard utilities--that
help you design dynamic, compelling documents right away.

Then eight design projects teach you about Publisher's tools within the
context of a typical small business environment. These step-by-step
projects focus on the desktop publishing needs of a fictitious business
called Epicurean Delights. For example, you will design a unique logo for
the store's stationery, create quote sheets, and produce a promotional
newsletter.

The appendix includes tips on optimizing and customizing Microsoft
Publisher the application. Also included is a handy Glossary of Design
Terms that those new to desktop publishing will find especially useful. A
comprehensive index helps you quickly find information on any Microsoft
Publisher topic in the book.
