| Zusammenfassung: | History of Desktop Publishing is a personal and encyclopedic story of how the personal computer, unique applications, and many colorful people changed the creative and print communities. Author Frank Romano has documented the histories of hot metal and phototypesetting and continues the tale of document production in this book. This installment ends as the Internet becomes a primary focus.00It is hard to imagine someone more involved with the universe of desktop publishing from its beginnings than Romano, who takes us on a personal journey from the end of the typewriter era to the age of the Internet, examining the development of personal computers, pagemaking and graphic design programs, postscript, digital fonts, data storage, inkjet printing, GUIs, and the rise of the digital era. For those who grew up during--or built their careers on--these advances, this book provides entertaining perspective and insight on an important period of their lives. For younger readers, it is a fascinating narrative of modern ancient history: how we got from the typewriter to DTP. Fully illustrated, with a Foreword by Gene Gable and a detailed Chronology by Richard Romano |

THE STORY OF DESKTOP PUBLISHING FROM THE FOREWORD Desktop publishing has roots that go back to Even though in some ways this story is still a Egyptian scribes and Victorian scriveners; to work in progress, we have clearly moved past typists on the new-fangled Sholes typewriter, the point where desktop publishing is a to transfer type, to cold type, to word distinct process — it s all just publishing now, processing and bitmapped screens, to personal whether on the desktop, at a server farm or in computers and laser printers, and beyond. the cloud. It seems fitting and timely, therefore, It is a saga that has its share of interesting to write the history of desktop publishing now, personalities, breakthrough inventions, and and to tell the story of the people, technology notable failures. From business offices to and market forces that brought us to where we printing plants, desktop publishing has evolved are today. from handwriting to typewriting to pixelated screens, to real typography, destroying some industries and engendering new ones.
