Desktop Publishing Arrives on Your PC!
Choose the Paragraph Tagging tool (fourth tool down on the toolbar depicting text and a tag).
Tag the paragraph above as a Headline 1. Then tag it as Headline
2, and Headline 3.
Tag the next paragraph as a Sub Head 1. Then tag it as a Sub Head
2, and Sub Head 3.
Tagging Makes Publishing Easy
Each Tag you assign changes the text attributes for the entire paragraph.
For instance, you can take the following list of features, and tag
each one with the Bullet Tag. (If you want to tag them all at once,
press and hold the alt key, then select each paragraph. Release
the alt key and then select the Bullet Tag).

DTP can print many characters not available to wordprocessor users,
including:
Greek symbols
Mathematical symbols
Typographic symbols
Foreign characters: (e.g. 0192 to 0255)
These characters are entered by holding the ALT key and then typing
the numerical equivalent of the character on the keyboard numeric
keypad. For instance to type a copyright symbol (ANSI 0169) hold the
ALT key, type 0169 and release the ALT key.
Select the Text Editing tool and insert a copyright symbol anywhere in this paragraph.
You can force lines to end prematurely, without creating a new paragraph.
Press and hold the Ctrl key and the press the <<Enter>> key. This creates
the following effect:
This is a line<R>
but this is another line,<R>
and yet all four lines<R>
are part of the same paragraph.
This is very useful for tables, headings.
You can also select text and shift it horizontally to the left. This
is known as kerning. To see the effects of kerning, select the Paragraph
Tagging tool and tag the following paragraph as a Headline 1.

Simple tables can be quickly formatted using the tab key, and selecting
a paragraph Tag which sets the tab stops. Tag each paragraph below
with the Table Tag.
Widget 1 283.23 287.34 295.99
Widget 2 1256.55 1289.55 1301.11
Widget 3 34.33 52.97 110.11
Experiment with the text in the remainder of this short chapter. Add
and delete text; cut, copy, and paste text; try different paragraph
Tags, and so on. When finished, try Opening other chapters contained
in the TYPESET directory. Have fun!
<MI>Insight magazine<D> caught up with Ken Jones, President and COO
of Acme Corporation, for a few minutes between meetings Thursday at
the convention center.
INSIGHT: What do you hope this year's conference will achieve?
KEN Jones: Cohesiveness and togetherness in the Acme network. I'd
like franchisees to come away with an understanding of our long-term
strategy and how we can all be strong together.

The potential market for desktop publishing hardware and software
is probably much larger than commonly believed<197>and this market
will continue to expand as DTP becomes more familiar and penetrates
businesses.
The most visible applications that DTP addresses are:
Newsletters
Direct mail pieces
Catalogs
Price lists
