Customer Reviews

Small, but Mighty

This book takes a complex piece of software and makes it user-friendly! I especially liked the book's non-patronizing attitude--it was as if a good friend was walking me through the program. I believe my "learning curve" was decreased significantly.

Subtitle says it all

The subtitle begins "A Quick Reference..." and that's what this is. It is a handy little book of PageMaker terms, arranged alphabetically. If you just want a quick reference guide, this is the book for you. But if you are looking for more in depth information about what the new version of PageMaker can do, then look elsewhere.

Indispensable!

This handy reference guide will prove indispensable. Redmond has been writing and publishing quick reference guides for some time now, and it shows in this series. Organized alphabetically, each guide excludes an index because, after all, it is one. The navigation is easy and gets right to the point.And don't let me fool you; the information available in each guide addresses the complex as well as the mundane. You will find quick reference tidbits on everything from Autoformatting (a bane to every Word user) to managing Text Formulas in Excel (which most of us would use if we knew they existed.)
