What is DeskTop Publishing?

Wikipedia (the free encyclopedia) will tell you that :

" DeskTop Publishing (also known as DTP) is...

... the creation of documents using page layout software on a personal computer.

The term has been used for publishing at all levels, from small-circulation documents such as local newsletters to books, magazines and newspapers. However the term implies a more professional-looking end result, with a more complex layout, than word processing... "

" The discipline of DTP skills range from technical skills such as prepress production and programming to creative skills such as communication design and graphic image development. "

" There are two types of pages in DeskTop Publishing, electronic pages and virtual paper pages to be printed on physical paper pages. All computerized documents are technically electronic, which are limited in size only by computer memory or computer data storage space.

Virtual paper pages will ultimately be printed, and therefore require paper parameters that coincide with international standard physical paper sizes such as "A4," "letter," etc., if not custom sizes for trimming. "

" A web page is an example of an electronic page that is not constrained by virtual paper parameters. Most electronic pages may be dynamically re-sized, causing either the content to scale in size with the page or causing the content to re-flow. "

Our preferred tools:

We're GREAT fans of the Adobe CS software line.

     eg: InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere,
     [the old] PageMaker...

     Along with MS-Word, Publisher, Skunklabs'
     Liquid Media and others.

     And we use a variety of web Content
     Management Systems (CMS's ), including
     Yahoo! Site Builder, Yahoo! Site Solution,
     OnClick, Volution, et al, in conjunction with
     Cascading Style Sheets (CSS's), JScript and
     html, when required.

NOTE: 

Support for the CMS (Content Management System) which has been used to create these web pages for the past decade is being discontinued at the end of 2022. The pages will still be visible until the end of 2023, but it won't be possible to add any new content after December 2022.
