The real victims in all of this are lovers of print books, yours truly among them. For all of those brought up on print, our books will be around for as long as we live. As the market shrinks, it will make bound volumes even more precious. Perhaps future generations will only read on screens.

This technology allows individuals, businesses, and other organizations to self-publish a wide range of printed matter-from menus and local newsletters to books, magazines, and newspapers-without the sometimes-prohibitive expense of commercial printing.Desktop publishing methods provides more control over design, layout, and typography than word processing does.
