What is Adobe PageMaker 7.0 Level 2?

Adobe PageMaker is a powerful page layout application you can use to create professional publications. In this course, you will learn advanced techniques and skills as you create a full-page color advertisement for publication in a magazine, and a catalog with tables that you will prepare for both print output and as an Acrobat PDF file designed for desktop printing or electronic distribution via the Web. Although PageMaker is a robust application that offers fine control over typography, page layout, colors, and printing, not all of its features are on the surface, so you may be missing out on the best ways to create professional-caliber publications. Additionally, you need some background information in each of those areas to fully exploit them and to create as polished a document as possible. As you create the documents in this course, you'll delve deeply into each of these areas, enabling you to work efficiently and get great results.
