	NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Timeworks Publisher
		The phrase desktop publishing is attributed to Paul Brainerd, the founder of Aldus Corporation, as a marketing term that referred to the use of a computer on top of a desk for publishing and also alluded the desktop metaphor that Apple used to mimic a real desktop.
		In 1986 Ventura Publisher was introduced on the PC moving infant DTP into the mainstream, this allowed DTP to be moved into the home market via GST's Timeworks Publisher on the PC and Atari ST but these systems were initially used mainly for small-distribution publications such as club newsletters.
		Timeworks Publisher, this was a Ventura clone for the PC and Atari ST.

	Desktop Publishing for the More Advanced (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Ventura Publisher has been around for a long time, more than 10 years, and has had several owners. Through its long life, it has developed and maintained a faithful following of users who have stayed with the program through thick and thin.
		Ventura Publisher doesn’t try to be as ambitious and is targeted toward an environment where one person at any given time works on the entire document.
		A Ventura Publisher document contains a style sheet with all of the tags defined, scripts or macros that control how Ventura Publisher does things when this document is loaded, one or more chapters that contain the visible content of the document, and the text, graphic objects, and images that make up the content.

	Ventura or PageMaker?
		Ventura paid little attention to the set-up and has always balked when Setup specifies portrait printing and the Page Setup dialog box specifies landscape printing.
		Ventura Publisher has one distinct advantage, however, that overcomes all the disadvantages: While PageMaker combines all the data necessary to generate a document into a single file, Ventura Publisher maintains all of its files separate from one another.
		In my experiment wit formating books, I saved time in Ventura Publisher by making a master disk with copies of all the style sheet and chapter files and then using a different text file for each booklet.

		Publisher 2003 opens a new front with its e-mail capabilities, but it's still primarily going to be judged on its print and Web output.
		In terms of print, Publisher has always been happy producing internal documents, but has found it hard to step up to the greater demands of commercial print.

		At one point, Ventura was thedesktop publishing program for PC users who were, for whatever reason, reluctant to take up the Macintosh platform, and it remained about the only reason GEM stayed around as long as it did (until killed stone dead by Windows 3.x).
		However, unlike Microsoft Publisher 97, the desktop publishing (DTP) program for people with no DTP experience and no desire to become professional, Ventura is a fully functional application that will take you to professional heights.
		Ventura has had previous support for generating tables of contents, indexes and cross-references (something Quark still won't do) and these features have been updated as well as adding HTML links.

		Publisher makes it unnecessary for you to know anything about overprinting and trapping, but if you discover that you do need these features or even to do something as fundamental as printing separations, you're out of luck.
		Well, Ventura 8 allows you to create new graphics, re-colour bitmaps, convert vector drawings to bitmaps, re-edit vector drawings (either in CorelDraw or in place) and, if you're working in a group, it might be nice to be able to share the results.

		Ventura was the very first layout program on the market, but through bad marketing by its various owners, it has sunk back in people's consciousness.
		Ventura was never very useful for small-scale layout, and as version 7 came around, industrial scale layout has become a reality.

		In 1987, PageMaker faced competition on the Mac itself from Tim Gill's QuarkXPress, and by the late 1980s all three of the pioneering DTP giants were fighting for dominance.
		Unfortunately, Ventura Publisher was too far ahead of its time - nowadays, XML and CSS fully exploit the benefit of separating style from content, but back then many people found it more trouble than it was worth, making file housekeeping and formatting unnecessarily complex.
		The real problem, though, was Ventura's reliance on GEM, which Xerox recognised when it took over development in 1990 and rewrote version 3 for Windows, Mac and OS/2.
