The Word is out on Great Design
Two Ventana titles take WinWord 6.0 users to DTP heights

Chapel Hill, NC--In their first editions, Ventana Press's Desktop
Publishing With Word for Windows and Word for Windows Design Companion
demolished the notion that great-looking documents come only with pricey
page-layout programs and years of design experience. Now in their second
edition, these two titles team up again to put the graphics powers of Word
for Windows 6.0 into users' hands.

Bestselling author Tom Lichty provides a primer for the basics of page
layout with Word for Windows. Desktop Publishing With Word for Windows,
Second Edition reveals the secrets of setting the tone with type and
adding power and pizzazz to documents with Word's built-in graphics tools.
Dozens of screen shots illustrate step-by-step instructions on enhancing
clarity through formatting tricks, improving productivity by managing
style sheets and integrating text and graphics with OLE. A new chapter
covers working with Word's newest features, including character-level
styles, templates and Wizards, WordArt 2.0 and more.

Katherine Shelly Pfeiffer's Word for Windows Design Companion, Second
Edition offers page after page of examples of brochure, newsletter, book,
logo, form and letterhead designs created exclusively in Word for Windows.
Step-by-step instructions and design rationale highlight each
illustration. Invaluable sections on professional printing techniques,
production shortcuts, troubleshooting tricks and "Design Do's and Don'ts"
help readers hone their design skills and save time and money with Word
for Windows 6 . An appendix on type selection brings the reader up-to-date
with the latest in typeface classification and technology.

Tom Lichty is senior instructor at the University of Oregon's
microcomputing program in Portland. He authored the bestselling The
Official America Online Membership Kit & Tour Guide and Mac, Word & Excel
Desktop Companion, both published by Ventana Press, and received the
Computer Press Association's Best How-To Book of 1988 Award for Design
