Great resource... Apr 20, 2009
By R. Caldwell Meant to be a reference for graphic designers, this book has everything but the kitchen sink in it. As I flipped through, I was constantly amazed at how much useful information I was finding. For me, the best parts are about everything to do with printing: paper sizes & kinds, folding templates for folders, envelopes, & packages, binding methods, printing techniques, etc. There's a large CMYK process "color finder" section at the back as well as a glossary of terms.
No, of course it's not exhaustive, but they did a great job of fitting as much information as possible within a book of practical size.
I definitely would recommend this to anyone looking for a reference book of this sort.

J.Pham Dec 01, 2010
By J.Pham Great resource for graphic designers. It's not exactly design techniques, but it is knowledge that graphic designers should know about various things like paper, envelope dimensions, mailing, folds, etc. Very important and great reference book. I highly recommend it and it's very organized and easy to read.

Everything they won't tell me in class. Jan 08, 2011
By m.julie I'm a graphic design student and have been searching for something that fills in the blanks that I don't learn in school. This is it... from packaging templates, envelope sizes, color guide and just in general good information, it has it all. I go to a school where the graphic design program is sadly not the strongest, and we end up missing out on very important information. This book should aid me in teaching myself the basics.
I do not receive the book Jan 17, 2012
By antonius Unfortunately, this is the first time I do not receive the stuff I bought from Amazon.
I do not know where it is and how to track the order.
I wish I had this book sooner. Nov 02, 2010
By Ray Noelle I've always enjoyed browsing through reference books and now I have one specific to design! This book is packed with technical information, and in the rare case that it might not be totally exhaustive, it at least gives me a vocabulary to look for further information in other places. I wish I would have had this book as a student, but even now it's not too late, I love it.
