Great book; be prepared to work at this great program
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
This is a wonderful book for serious users of QuarkXPress, which is the best and most broadly-used professional DTP program on the market (recent improvements to InDesign notwithstanding). If you're looking for a quickstart guide to build your church newsletter, buy one. If you're a serious professional who wants to understand how to really use Quark in the real world (and it's a worthwhile investment, believe me), buy Blatner's book. Period.
Blatner's Done It Again

David Blatner is an excellent writer and continues to explore the new depths of QuarkXPress 5 with his "real world" approach, incorporating a welcome mix of humor in what could otherwise be a dry subject: desktop publishing. As a college level graphic art technology instructor, I've used Real World QuarkXPress 5 as a text book. The students have learned to give QuarkXPress the respect it deserves for the position the application has earned in the industry. Real World QuarkXPress 5 has the depth necessary to cover the new features in the program. I use the book in my own business as a handy resource. I recommend this book hands down against other books currently available.
