DESK TOP PUBLISHING (DTP)

Role of a desktop publisher

Desktop Publishers use publishing software to create page layouts for print or electronic publication. They typically gather existing material or work with designers and writers to create new artwork or text, find and edit graphics, such as photographs or illustrations, use scanners to turn drawings and other materials into digital images, import text and graphics into desktop publishing software programs, position artwork and text on the page layout, select formatting properties, such as text size, column width and spacing, check proofs or preliminary layouts, for errors and make corrections, finalize formatted documents for printing or electronic publication and send final files to a commercial printer or print the documents on a high-resolution printer.
