From Jacci Howard Bear, your Guide to Desktop Publishing
December? Already? I haven't even recovered from Thanksgiving yet. Do you have your holiday shopping all done? Haven't started? Planning to do something different this year? Perhaps you'll find some inspiration in this week's newsletter.

The Role of Desktop Publishing in Creating Packaging
Here's a wild idea for wrapping presents this year -- use your graphics and desktop publishing software to whip up labels or wrapping paper that mimics the actual packaging for whatever you've wrapped (or something entirely from your imagination). But give it a made-up name, holiday-themed taglines in place of marketing slogans, and maybe even a logo that represents you, the gift-giver. I like the idea but in truth, leftover paper or last minute gift bags are probably what any of my gift-recipients will get. In the meantime, find out how to put your design skills to work designing and printing packaging and labels for clients. Read all about desktop publishing and packaging design.
