A designer in New York creates a beautiful design but when she prints it the colors become muddy. An art director in Seattle sends a file to the print shop, and they call him to say the job wonâ€™t print. The editor of a college paper canâ€™t figure out why all the pictures in the paper are jagged. And a freelance designer is Chicago needs to bid on her first print job. Linescreen, DPI, CMYK, RIPs, bleeds, spots, and spreads: Why didnâ€™t they teach this stuff in design school? Sandee Cohen comes to the rescue, whether youâ€™re producing your first newsletter or youâ€™re an experienced graphic designer who needs to come up to speed on professional-level printing.

This book will help you: Choose the right desktop printer for your needs Finally understand resolution Get the results you want from page-layout and image-editing applications Find the best stock images Know what to expect when RGB colors convert to CMYK Figure out your fonts Preflight your work Sound smart when talking to a print shop
