Hi Daryl, How can one book by 21st July when it's already 21st August? Brian. ----- Original Message ----- From: Daryl Colquhoun To: austechwriter@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, August 21, 2003 2:50 PM Subject: [austechwriter] All About Indesign -- ASTC Sydney meeting Wednesday InDesign is a page layout and design platform from Adobe, first shipped in 1999. At the time at the launch roadshow Adobe people said that they hoped it might make a dent in QuarkXPress's user base. Since then, InDesign has won MacAddict Best Software Product of the Year and many more awards. And by now, according to Nick Hodge of Adobe Systems, 'InDesign has stolen the lead from Xpress'. Is it a cross between Illustrator and FrameMaker? Is it an alternative to QuarkXPress but at half the price? And what is its relevance to us technical writers? Nick Hodge will tell us at the ASTC's next meeting. Date? Wednesday 27 August 2003. Time? 6pm. Where? ... Sydney Mechanics School of Arts, level 1, 280 Pitt Street, Sydney (on the museum side of Pitt Street between Park and Bathurst). Cost? ... $15 for members who book by Monday 21st July. $20 for others. To book, email info at astcnsw dot org dot au, or phone 82507056. ************************************************** To post a message to austechwriter, send the message to austechwriter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe to austechwriter, send a message to austechwriter-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with "subscribe" in the Subject field.
