The Five Commandments of Effective Typesetting

22 December, 2009 By Yvon Prehn Leave a Comment

PDF of the Five Commandments of Desktop PublishingWhen you create communications with the computer you are immediately in the role of a typesetter, but without any training.

In addition, if you first learned to type with a typewriter, many of the habits you learned, (such as two spaces after a period), though correct with typewriters, are completely incorrect for a typesetter.

This chart gives you a quick overview of some of the most common changes you need to make in how you handle typesetting.

Please download, study and follow these guidelines on typesetting your church communications and your communications will look much more professional.
