Publishing Fundamentals Update

 

 

FrameMaker 7: The Complete Reference is now out of print, but we will republish the book as Publishing Fundamentals: FrameMaker 7 (ISBN 0970473338) in the coming weeks.

We're in the process of reformatting the content now, and we also corrected a few errors in The Complete Reference. (Some of those errors made us cringe, but nobody's perfect!) The formatting in Publishing Fundamentals is quite different than that in The Complete Reference, but the pagination in the two books is nearly identical. Readers can easily locate the same information in either book.

Please send an email to books@scriptorium.com if you're interested in purchasing Publishing Fundamentals. (There is no obligation to buy if you contact us.) You will receive emailed updates about the book's status. Just before the book is released, you'll also get the chance to preorder it for 15 percent off the cover price of $59.99 AND receive free Priority Mail shipping (US addresses only).

 

   

Summer Training Schedule

 

 

Our summer classes for both web- and classroom-based training are already filling up. (If you're interested in classroom-based training on structured FrameMaker 7, InDesign, or Photoshop, the classes scheduled for June 19–22 and August 7–10 have just a few seats left, so register soon.)

Our web-based training lets you eliminate travel costs while still getting many of the benefits of our instructor-led training: small class size, the opportunity to ask questions, and a challenging curriculum that engages you. For more information about online or classroom training, contact training@scriptorium.com.

For those who prefer to learn FrameMaker at their own pace, we also offer our FrameMaker 7 Workbook Series. You can download the workbooks from our online store for $49.95 each. You get the workbook in PDF format, exercise files, and access to video clips that explain the FrameMaker interface.

 

   

InDesign Magazine Article: Integrating XML
