Scope: This Corel-approved courseware is a true training manual where you read brief information about the topic then follow step-by-step through the exercises provided. Each exercise is easily understandable with logical steps to follow with comments, screen captures, and icons displayed where needed. The tutorials were written by Tom Anzai, a Corel-certified trainer and presenter at CorelWorld and Ventura Summit conferences. Great care was taken to ensure that the most relevant features of each application are discussed and presented in an easy-to-understand tutorial format.

Audience: This manual is intended to be used for students who would like to learn how to use the Corel Ventura publishing program. It is assumed the student has Windows and mouse experience. This course describes how to get started, use the basic tools, and apply it to various documents. Step-by-step exercises lead the students through each topic. Self-check exercises and a short-answer questionnaire summate each section. Students may elect to try the additional exercises in the Appendices for extra practice. Comes with a downloadable exercise disk.
