MMMM 2310 - Desktop Publishing

Credits: 3
Desktop publishing (DTP) merges the fields of writing and editing, typography, photography and graphics, layout and design, and printing. Using industry-standard desktop publishing software, students create a variety of practice publications as well as their own original documents. Students work with text and graphic frames, manipulate text formatting, incorporate process and spot colors, develop tables and use tabs properly, create graphics and work with transparency, and package and export documents for commercial printing.
