How long is a book?

Skilled Workman Posted on April 27, 2011 by David BergslandApril 27, 2011

I’ll bet you never thought about it. But there are certainly answers that you need to know. This posting was triggered by a post from Sue Collier this morning which stated the following: “What length constitutes a book? It varies widely depending on who you ask.

Skilled Workman Posted on April 12, 2011 by David BergslandApril 12, 2011

Now there is some real help. InDesign has been the best page layout tool for print for over a decade now. I was blessed to be in on the beta team for version one in 1999.
