Desk-top publishing is one of the fastest growing applications of personal computers, producing a document which looks as if it has been printed rather than typed. Xerox Ventura Publisher is one of the most popular desk-top publishing packages, now released in version 2.0. Ventura is very powerful, permitting the user to have full control over all typesetting functions. This very power leads to complexity, both of the package and its documentation. Colin Day here attempts to bridge the gap that exists between the uninitiated beginner and the user-unfriendly manual. He explains the basic methods step-by-step both with and without using a pre-existing style sheet, and covers advanced and supplementary topics in a reference format. In the final section, the new Professional Extension is described, which allows typesetting of equations, tables and other difficult material.
