CMP 80K---Art of the Book in the Computer Age

Kevin Karplus

A course in desktop publishing using PageMaker and LaTeX or HTML. Assumes familiarity with Macintosh computers. Emphasis is on analysis and design of page-layout, but copy-editing, font choices, and some history of printing are included.

Other info

Adobe's type page. This location is great for information about type, type designers, using type, and lots of other type-related info. Their Web service is sometimes a bit slow though, so you might be best to avoid mid-afternoon peak hours.
