DTP Interest My interest in DTP started with making personalized greeting cards primarily using the Print Artist program. As my interest progressed I moved on to more advanced software and other projects like booklets, brochures and business cards. One of my favorite things to make now is magnetic business cards and decorative magnets. My favorite software is the CorelDraw Graphics Suite and Photoshop.
Tips/Advice Let your own personal flair show through in everything you do. Avoid using clip art and predesigned templates "out of the box"... they're great to use as a starting point, but adding that personal touch is (in my opinion) one of the most satisfying aspects of desktop publishing.
