Rating: Summary: Bad Binding Review: Get this book but reinforce the binding. It will tend to fall to pieces after a few weeks of use. In other words the "perfect binding" is less than perfect.

Rating: Summary: Excellent "how-to" tutorial for PageMaker 6.5 Plus Review: I am a newbie to the wonderful world of desktop publishing and was charged with the task of putting together the newsletter for my state professional organization. The graphics arts department at my local printer wanted me to use Pagemaker Plus 6.5, since that is the software they use. This single book gave me the information I needed to do the complete newsletter.In a number of one hour lessons, the Adobe team literally walks you through each step in putting together quality print projects. The book's learning style is "learn by doing." In each lesson, when you get to a step that introduces a new concept, there is some instructional text. Otherwise, you move rapidly, step-by-step, to create a real-life print project. Furthermore, all of the clip-art, text, and fonts are on the CD-ROM that is included with the book. I was so impressed with this book, I purchased the Adobe Press book entitled, "Adobe PhotoShop 6.0 Classroom in a Book." I also found it to be excellent. Both of these software titles are particularly difficult to just open and go, like so many of the Microsoft titles are. A book like this one is a MUST for anyone with a windows background who needs to learn these titles. Happy Reading! Jim

Rating: Summary: The BEST way to learn Pagemaker quickly!!! Review: I am an advanced Pagemaker designer and I recently was assigned to train coworkers in its usage. I was able to teach them with the help of this book in two days!! I wish I had learned from this book -- it would have saved many, many hours of my time.
Rating: Summary: Adobe PageMaker Classrom in a book 6.5 Review: I had never used PageMaker or any software like it and this book made me very comfortable with basic PageMaker features. I had trouble using the fonts included on the book's CD and wished for troubleshooting information about that but otherwise I had no trouble with the lessons.

Rating: Summary: Did anyone test the lessons? Review: I have found portions of this book useful. I am very disappointed with the lesson files. Several chapters will not allow you to use the Word® files in the lesson folders due to error "Filter not Found" Did anyone test these lessons after publication? I would like either my money back or corrected lesson files to complete the book.
