Features: This book is a planned and uniformly compiled teaching material by the National Teaching Guidance Committee for Higher Vocational and Specialized Colleges in Printing and Packaging. Typesetting is an indispensable preliminary work in printing. Mastering typesetting technology enables independent completion of graphic layout work until printing output.

Chapters 3 to 7 mainly cover the functions of PageMaker, InDesign, and FIT in text, paragraph, graphic editing, layers, and book compilation. Chapters 8 and 9 focus on the control of white space compensation and fold handling during the printing output process. The last three chapters discuss file output methods tailored to different objectives. This book can serve as a teaching material for higher vocational and specialized colleges in printing, packaging, art design, and editorial publishing. It is also suitable for employee training schools, correspondence colleges, and educational institutions in related enterprises and organizations, as well as for beginners in the industry.
