Adobe Seminars: Web Page Design mimics the seminar world by combining a lot of
sessions on related topics; you can jump around from session to session or
concentrate solely on those you need most. All of the sessions focus on designing
Web pages, from production and design to artistic implementation and site
management. First, the book teaches you how to define the purpose of your site,
figure out the production roles among various people in your organization, and
determine your marketing perspective. Next, you learn how to use Adobe Photoshop and
Illustrator to create graphics, text, and special effects; design a reasonable site
structure; create navigational elements and image maps; prepare graphics for the
Web; and work with color. You find out how to use Adobe PageMill, the WYSIWYG HTML
editor, and Adobe SiteMill, the site manager, to fine-tune your HTML, create HTML
tables and frames, and more. You also discover how to create animations from such
applications as GifBuilder and Macromedia Director; add sound and video effects
using SoundEdit Pro and Premiere; create PDF files with Adobe Acrobat; and grasp
trickier aspects such as Web hosting, CGI scripting, and database creation. This
full-color guide features plenty of step-by-step instruction, clear illustrations,
and a CD-ROM with project files and images and clip art. People with a wide range of
skill levels can benefit from this book's tips, including intermediate and
semi-advanced Web developers, managers, artists, and programmers.
