Course Description:

'' You have probably created simple documents such as letters and reports using word processing applications. You most likely applied basic type formatting, may have even included some graphics in the documents, and probably printed the documents yourself on a desktop printer. Now you may need to create high-quality single- and multiple-page documents for professional publication. In this course, you’ll use QuarkXPress to layout professional quality single and multiple-page documents that include text and graphics, and are designed for professional printing and publication.
