The Book Book: A Complete Guide to Creating a Book on Your Computer

Inside Information the Big Publishers Don't Want You to Have! Publishers typically reject 999 of 1000 manuscripts submitted--and your talent, knowledge, and writing skills may have nothing to do with it! Is this how you want your literary creation treated? Self-publishing books abound. Graphic design books for producing flyers and brochures are everywhere. But where will you find everything you need to know about editing, typesetting, and designing an entire book on your own computer? In The Book Book: A Complete Guide to Creating a Book on Your Computer, of course! The Book Book was designed to make book planning, typesetting, layout, and prepress production accessible to and easy for anyone with computer experience.
