Okay, okay... why on earth am I recommending a Pagemaker 4 manual from 1992? That is a valid question. And it is because of the wealth of information sprinkled throughout the pages. I haven't felt this kind of frisson from a reference book since an old Joy of Cooking, or my beloved 14th edition of the Chicago Manual of Style.
