    Desktop publishing (abbreviated DTP) is the creation of documents usingpage layoutskills on apersonal computer. When used skillfully, desktop publishing software can produce text and images withattractive layouts and typographic quality comparable to traditionaltypographyandprinting. Thistechnology allows individuals, businesses, and other organizations to self-publish a wide range of printedmatterfrommenusand local newsletters to books, magazines, and newspaperswithout thesometimes-prohibitive expense of commercial printing.

    Desktop publishing combines apersonal computerandWYSIWYGpage layoutsoftwareto createpublicationdocumentson a computer for eitherlarge scale publishingor small scale localmultifunctionperipheraloutput and distribution. Desktop publishing methods provide more control over design, layout,and typography thanword processingdoes. However, word processing software has evolved to includesome, though by no means all, capabilities previously available only with professional printing or desktoppublishing.

    The same DTP skills and software used for common paper and book publishing are sometimes used tocreate graphics forpoint of sale displays,promotional items,trade show exhibits,retail package designsandoutdoor signs. Although what is classified as "DTP software" is usually limited to print and PDFpublications, DTP skills aren't limited to print. The content produced by desktop publishers may also beexported and used forelectronic media. The job descriptions that include "DTP" such asDTP artistoften

    require skills using software for producinge-books, web content, andweb pages.

    History

    Desktop publishing began in 1983 with a program developed by James Bessen at a communitynewspaper in Philadelphia.[1]That program, Type Processor One, ran on anPCusing agraphics cardfor

    aWYSIWYGdisplay and was offered commercially by Best info in 1984.[2](Desktoptypesetting, with onlylimited page makeup facilities, had arrived in 19789 with the introduction ofTeX, and was extended inthe early 1980s byLaTeX.) The DTP market exploded in 1985 with the introduction in January of theAppleLaserWriterprinter, and later in July with the introduction ofPageMakersoftware fromAlduswhichrapidly became the DTP industry standard software.

    The term "desktop publishing" is attributed toAldus CorporationfounderPaul Brainerd,[3]who sought amarketing catch-phrase to describe the small size and relative affordability of this suite of products incontrast to the expensive commercialphototypesettingequipment of the day.

    By the standards of today, early desktop publishing was a primitive affair. Users of the PageMaker-LaserWriter-Macintosh 512K system endured frequent software crashes,[4]cramped display on the Mac'stiny 512 x 342 1-bitmonochromescreen, the inability to controlletter spacing,kerning(the addition orremoval of space between individual characters in a piece of typeset text to improve its appearance oralter its fit) and othertypographic features, and discrepancies between the screen display and printedoutput. However, it was a revolutionary combination at the time, and was received with considerableacclaim.

    Behind-the-scenes technologies developed byAdobe Systemsset the foundation for professionaldesktop publishing applications. The LaserWriter and LaserWriter Plus printers included high quality,scalable AdobePostScript-fonts built into theirROMmemory. The LaserWriter'sPostScriptcapabilityallowed publication designers to proof files on a local printer then print the same file at DTPservicebureaususingoptical resolution600+ ppi PostScript-printers such as those fromLinotronic. Later, theMacintosh IIwas released which was much more suitable for desktop publishing because of its greaterexpandability, support for large colormulti-monitordisplays, and itsSCSIstorage interface which allowedfast, high-capacity hard drives to be attached to the system.

    Although Macintosh-based systems would continue to dominate the market, in 1986, theGEM-basedVentura Publisherwas introduced forMS-DOScomputers. While PageMaker's pasteboard metaphor

    closely simulated the process of creating layouts manually, Ventura Publisher automated the layoutprocess through its use of tags/style sheetsand automatically generated indices and other body matter.This made it suitable for manuals and other long-format documents. Desktop publishing moved into thehome market in 1986 withProfessional Pagefor theAmiga,Publishing Partner(now PageStream) for theAtari ST, GST'sTimeworks Publisheron the PC and Atari ST andCalamusfor theAtari TT030. Even for8-bit computers like theApple IIandCommodore 64software was published: Home Publisher,TheNewsroomandgeoPublish.

    During its early years, desktop publishing acquired a bad reputation as a result of untrained users whocreated poorly-organizedransom note effectlayouts similar criticism would be levied again againstearlyWebpublishers a decade later. However, some were able to realize truly professional results.

    Once considered a primary skill, increased accessibility to more user-friendly DTP software has made

    DTP a secondary skill toart direction,graphic design,multimedia development,marketingcommunications,administrative careersand advanced high school literacy in thriving economies.

    [clarification

    needed]DTP skill levels range from what may be learned in a few hours (e.g. learning how to put clip art in a

    word processor) to what requires a college education and years of experience (e.g.advertising agencypositions). The discipline of DTP skills range from technical skills such as prepress productionandprogrammingto creative skills such ascommunication designandgraphic image development.

    Terminology

    There are two types of pages in desktop publishing,electronic pagesand virtual paper pages to beprinted onphysical paper pages. All computerized documents are technically electronic, which are limitedin size only bycomputer memoryorcomputer data storagespace.

    Virtual paper pages will ultimately beprinted, and therefore require paper parameters that coincide withinternational standard physical paper sizessuch as "A4," "letter," etc., if not custom sizes for trimming.Some desktop publishing programs allow custom sizes designated for large format printing used inposters,billboardsandtrade show displays. A virtual page for printing has a predesignated size of virtualprinting material and can be viewed on a monitor inWYSIWYGformat. Each page for printing has trimsizes (edge of paper) and a printable area ifbleed printingis not possible as is the case with mostdesktop printers.

    Aweb pageis an example of an electronic page that is not constrained by virtual paper parameters. Mostelectronic pages may be dynamically re-sized, causing either thecontentto scale in size with the page orcausing thecontent to re-flow.

    Master pages are templates used to automatically copy or link elements and graphic design styles tosome or all the pages of a multipage document. Linked elements can be modified without having to

    change each instance of an element on pages that use the same element. Master pages can also beused to apply graphic design styles to automatic page numbering.

    Page layoutis the process by which the elements are laid on the page orderly, aesthetically, andprecisely. Main types of components to be laid out on a page include text, linkedimagesthat can only bemodified as an external source, and embedded images that may be modified with the layout applicationsoftware. Some embedded images arerenderedin the application software, while others can be placedfrom an external source image file. Text may bekeyedinto the layout, placed, or (withdatabasepublishingapplications) linked to an external source of text which allows multiple editors to develop adocument at the same time.

    Graphic design styles such as color, transparency, and filters, may also be applied to layout elements.Typographystyles may be applied to text automatically withstyle sheets. Some layout programs include

    style sheets for images in addition to text. Graphic styles for images may be border shapes, colors,transparency, filters, and a parameter designating the way text flows around the object called"wraparound" or "runaround."

    Comparisons

    With word processing

    While desktop publishing software still provides extensive features necessary for print publishing, modernword processors now have publishing capabilities beyond those of many older DTP applications, blurringthe line betweenword processingand desktop publishing.

    In the early days ofgraphical user interfaces, DTP software was in a class of its own when compared tothe fairly spartan word processing applications of the time. Programs such asWordPerfectandWordStarwere still mainly text-based and offered little in the way of page layout, other than perhaps margins andline spacing. On the other hand, word processing software was necessary for features like indexing andspell checking, features that are common in many applications today.

    As computers and operating systems have become more powerful, vendors have sought to provide userswith a single application platform that can meet all needs.

    With other electronic layout software

    In modern usage, DTP is not generally said to include tools such as TeXortroff, though both can easilybe used on a modern desktop system and are standard with manyUnix-likeoperating systems and

    readily available for other systems. The key difference between electronictypesettingsoftware and DTPsoftware is that DTP software is generally interactive andWYSIWYGin design, while other electronictypesetting software, such asTeX,LaTeXand other variants, tends to operate inbatch mode, requiringthe user to enter the processing program's markup language without immediate visualization of thefinished product. This kind of workflow is less user-friendly thanWYSIWYG, but more suitable forconference proceedings and scholarly articles as well as corporate newsletters or other applicationswhere consistent, automated layout is important.

    There is some overlap between desktop publishing and what is known asHypermediapublishing (i.e.Web design, Kiosk, CD-ROM). Many graphicalHTML editorssuch asMicrosoft FrontPageandAdobeDreamweaveruse a layout engine similar to a DTP program. However, some Web designers still prefer towrite HTML without the assistance of a WYSIWYG editor, for greater control and because these editorsoften result incode bloat.
