Desktop publishing refers to the act of using software on a personal computer to combine mixed media elements, such as text, photos, or charts, into printable documents and many more. Once created, these documents can either be printed on a home printer or outsourced to a professional printing service which is acceptable for printable documents.
Desktop publishing is the use of the computer and software to create visual displays of ideas and information to represent. Desktop publishing documents may be for desktop or commercial printing or electronic distribution including PDF, slide shows, email newsletters, epub and the Web etc.
Desktop publishing software permits users to modify multiple elements within a document through master pages or simple pages. Instead of needing to change each instance of an element on several pages of a document, users can modify a single linked element and thus change every occurrence of this element in the document; typographical elements, such as column width, spacing, or font size, can be easily altered and text can be modified to wrap around graphical images, or enlarged or reduced on command which are acceptable there.
Complete desktop publishing involves the combination of typesetting (choosing fonts and the text layout), graphic design, page layout (how it all fits on the page) and printing the documentation. However, as mentioned before, desktop publishing can also be as simple as typing and printing a school paper. In order to desktop publish, all you need is a computer, monitor, printer and software that can create a printable documentation. While that might cost more than a pen and paper, it certainly is cheaper than a printing press which is also great quality system.
