All kinds of holidays and special dates were crammed into December, including Christmas. On the desktop publishing front I've offered up two more special interest niches to explore: packaging design and periodicals. But that's not all (does that phrase remind you of late night infomercials?). If you're looking for something to carry you into the new year, consider what new skills and knowledge you're going to acquire for 2012 because this month I made this bold (is that overly dramatic?) statement: everyone needs to know desktop publishing. Find out why.
It's not just the end of a month, it's the end of a year. At the end of this post I've highlighted one new article, tutorial, or subject from each of the previous 11 months of 2011. I covered cold calling and Celtic fonts, the Readers' Choice winners, spelling issues, and QR codes just to name a few. It just scratches the surface of what we learned and talked about this year. What were your favorite topics?
