4.0 out of 5 stars Good book, February 25, 2004
This review is from: QuarkXPress 6 Killer Tips (Paperback)
This book has valuable tips, design know-hows & covers those "gotchas" that mess up design work. Very helpful in figuring out small & big details that create a solid design document. Taking on a visual approach, pictures guide you along with a nice light coversational tone. The author concise commentary makes it so much more easier to understand. The only reason I have rated it 4 stars , it 'cos I think the price is a little high. Oh well! A good book, nonetheless!

1.0 out of 5 stars This book is worthless, December 7, 2005

This review is from: QuarkXPress 6 Killer Tips (Paperback)
If you are new to Quark this book might prove to be useful. If you have been using Quark for over a year I doubt there is anything in there that would help you significantly. There is nothing in this book that isn't in any other Quark book or even Quark's own documentation. Any Quark book by David Blatner would be far more useful. To call this book Killer Tips is a Joke!
