Homework for December 6, 2005

Hey guys, it's been awhile, but we are almost at the end of our Word section and ready to move on to DTP. So, what you are to do is read the introduction to DTP in the text found on pages 42-43. Then, answer the following questions:

1. What two advances revolutionized the way printed materials were produced?
2. Describe how the letter press worked.
3. Describe how photo-type setting worked.
4. Give two reasons why DTP is more flexible that regular Word Processing.
5. How do you achieve a newspaper style look using DTP?

Remember to answer the questions in your own words to demonstrate you understand the material. This homework is due on Friday, December 9, 2005. Good luck and I look forward to reading your corrected Spell Check poems.
