Subject:Finding good sources about the DTP revolution
A postgraduate student at our University is researching on the
history of
Desktop Publishing (DTP) – the Desktop Publishing revolution –
and we are
finding some difficulties to obtain relevant and valid sources of
information. Most of the material we could find is from the ’80s or
’90s
and coming from a myriad of different sources without much academic
weight.
One source we have found is the *“Desktop Publishing”* chapter by
H. A.
Tucker in *“Advances in Computer Graphics III (Focus on Computer
Graphics)”*
(printed in 1988), but having only this is not providing a lot of
material
to work on.
Most probable is the case that we are just blind by ignorance. Hence,
to
ask in this forum could bring us to light. Is there any source that
you
could recommend?
Best,
Tomás
