| Publisher Description: Every RISC OS user received copies of Draw and Edit; irrespective of whether they were using RISC OS 2 or the latest RISC OS 5/6. This book shows how these applications in their most basic form can be used to produce high-quality documents without the need for an expensive desktop publishing package. Detailed descriptions of the various commands and of Draw operations are included. Step-by-step instructions are given for such effects as drop shadows and pie charts. Of special interest will be a section on multiple page documents and a chapter on troubleshooting. Roger Amos is a retired technical journalist and public relations consultant who has used Acorn computers since the appearance of the BBC Model B. He has a long-standing professional interest in typography and contributed towards the development of fonts for Beebug; and was involved in the development of the original Ovation DTP. He has also written several books on the application of electronics and computers to railway modelling. |
