Shows how desktop publishing schemes may be launched and maintained on modest budgets. Apart from covering the essential topics, the book provides a list of addresses that ought to be of use to those involved in small-scale desktop publishing.
Everyone has heard of desktop publishing but does it really require equipment costing #7,000 to get results? Books on DTP are usually aimed at business users who can afford both the capital costs and the running costs (like the #90 per month for ink toner on a laser printer), but there is a dearth of information for the smaller user who exists in far greater numbers. Every church has a newsletter, and to that one can add small businesses, scouts and guides, pubs and neighbourhood schemes. There are thousands of people who need to produce small-scale newsletters, leaflets, and catalogues, but who cannot afford the expenditure of a full-scale DTP system and who probably rely at present on a typist and an old duplicator. Now that the Amstrad PC type of machine is so well established, and with virtually every dot-matrix printer being Epson-compatible, the many owners of this type of machine can take on the task of preparing these "shoestring" publications. The older Amstrad PCW8256 and PCW8512 machines are also favourites for text preparation, and the DTP methods that are described here apply to those machines also.
