Description
The Best Way to Learn the New Features of QuarkXpress 7!
QuarkXPress 7: Up to Speed is the first book that cuts away the fat of what you already know about QuarkXPress and goes right to the new features. Unlike other books that present you with hundreds of pages detailing every last tool, palette and menu (both old and new), this handy guide focuses exclusively on the new features providing you with the in-depth explanations needed to start using the program immediately. Including just enough information about older features to make the new ones understandable, Ben and Jay show not only which buttons to push, but why.
* In-depth coverage of every new feature in QuarkXPress 7, including full chapters dedicated to Transparency & Shadows, Shared Layouts & Composition Zones, Job Jackets and the new Measurements Palette.
* Quickly learn what's been moved, renamed, or eliminated from the previous version, making your transition to QuarkXPress 7 as painless as possible.
* If you have a working knowledge of QuarkXPress 5 or 6, this book is for you. It's designed to get you up to speed with the new features in the most efficient and useful way possible. Easy to read for upper-level beginners through advanced, but not designed for absolute beginners.
