Publications

If you agonize over using trees to print magazines, note that some of these publications are available electronically. Highly recommended electronic versions include Before and After Magazine, Design Tools Monthly, Graphic Exchange Magazine (which includes QuickTime movies), and InDesign Magazine.

Desktop Publishing

• Design Tools Monthly www.design-tools.com

  Great tips, bug alerts, and industry news condensed into one great resource. In addition to the monthly newsletter, you receive shareware and freeware software and fonts. Available in both print and downloadable PDF versions.

• InDesign Magazine www.indesignmag.com

  Despite the name, InDesign Magazine is about more than just a single program. Published six times a year as an electronic magazine (there is no printed version), this engaging publication includes great tips and tricks, information about bug work-arounds, and articles about printing issues, plug-ins, and design in general.
