Résumé
Tech journalist Pamela Pfiffner explores the rich
history behind the modernpublishing revolution, as seen
through the lens of one of its most importantplayers. In
the past 20 years, Adobe Systems has become synonymous
withgreat design tools, and the company's impact on how we
work in publishing,graphic arts, and on the Web is
unmatched. Join Pfiffner on a colorfuljourney from the
roots of the desktop publishing revolution through the
riseof the Web and interactive design. Along the way,
you'll witness the birthand evolution of PostScript, the
explosion of the Photoshop market, therealization of the
paperless office, and other events that have shaped theway
we communicate.
Inside the Publishing Revolution is not one of
those dull historicaltomes you know and loathe from high
school. Pfiffner packs its pages withlively, insightful
interviews with world-class designers and illustrators,as
well as personal insights and recollections from John
Warnock, ChuckGeschke, Jonathan Seybold, and other
publishing luminaries. Richlyillustrated and beautifully
designed, the book features galleries ofhistorically
significant work by leading artists and rare photographs
fromthe Adobe archives. For added perspective, Pfiffner
walks you through anillustrated timeline of the publishing
revolution. As with history, thefinal chapter of the Adobe
story remains to be written, so the book endswith an eye
toward the future: an exclusive overview of the
company'svision of publishing in the next decade.
