Description
This book is a mine of practical information and advice for all those who want to produce their own small newspaper or magazine. Its aim is to demonstrate that becoming a small scale publisher can be surprisingly easy - and very enjoyable.
The first section describes the setting up of the new publication from scratch - establishing objectives. organising an office, talking to printers, finance. The remaining four sections of the book take the reader, step by step, through the complete process of producing a single issue: from writing and editing material, selecting illustrations, designing the pages and putting the paper together, to printing and distributing the finished copies.
Developments in techniques have made printing increasingly accessible, cheaper and easier to handle for the part-time publisher. Groups of all kinds in the community-schools and colleges, local clubs and societies, political parties and pressure groups - have begun to discover the potential of publishing their own newspaper or magazine. INTO PRINT provides an invaluable guide and source of information for all who think that the printed word can help in their activities and that they would enjoy producing a paper of their own.
