I think it depends what you're looking for. (Technical tips, info re: design/layout, reviews of new products, etc.) I don't know if I would say it's the 'only one worth buying' ;-) but I think ITC "Desktop" is extremely good. It doesn't seem to be as readily available on the newsstands as some of the other DTP magazines <a good sign? :-) > Another recommendation, particularly if you're interested in GOOD typography, is 'U&lc' (though NOT devoted exclusively to DTP.)

Maybe Publish magazine's new format is a belated April Fools' Day joke!

Can someone point me exactly in what areas the new PUBLISH makeover is intrinsically bad? I glanced over it at the newsstand, and while I agree that it was change strictly for the sake of change, I can't point out exactly what is BAD about it (aside from all the ads cramming into page space and sorta running counter to the new philosophy, such as it is....). I'm not being sarcastic; I just want to know for my own growing sense of layout and design.

>>For my money, the only "DTP" mag worth buying is Personal >>Publishing. My current favorite is something out of Toronto called Electronic Composition and Imaging. I've been finding them at Software Etc. lately, and I've been fairly impressed with the design and the quality of the articles. They outshine the American magazines, in my opinion. I just wish they published more often than every other month, and got down here to the states a little quicker. -- Ralph Brandi ralph@mtune.att.com att!mtune!ralph Work flows toward the competent until they are submerged.
