Quark has announced the availability of a new book Desk Top Publishing with QuarkXPress 2016 by Martin Turner, a new training resource available through Amazon. The author is a brand consultant at Brand Motor Ltd. and a Founding Chartered Public Relations Practitioner. He’s also a long-time QuarkXPress user, having started with the software in 1996 after migrating to the Apple Macintosh. In this new 356-page paperback book, Turner offers valuable insights on desktop publishing and QuarkXPress for both new and seasoned users. Working from the basics, the book covers mastering desktop publishing, digital publishing, job jackets and automation, and lists and explains every panel, palette, menu and function of QuarkXPress 2016. The marginal notes are full of hard-to-find information, pro-tips and trade “secrets.” Of his new book Turner writes: “Over the years, I’ve seen dozens of designers, some straight from college, some hardened veterans, whose work came to a halt because they lacked some crucial piece of knowledge. In this book, I’ve tried to include the answers to all of their questions, and to uncover the richer possibilities that QuarkXPress 2016 offers. Its new features – especially native import and HTML5 publishing – allow us to be more productive, more creative and more satisfied in our work. Whether in print or online, more than ever before, QuarkXPress 2016 gives us the power to delight the eye and intrigue the mind.”
