iWork 05: The Missing Manual
Introduced by Apple in January 2005, iWork '05 is an
innovative new suite of document and presentation software
that's the same caliber as Apple's groundbreaking digital
media applications and that's wholly dedicated to what Mac
users like you care about most: artistry and creativity.
iWork '05 isn't about "office productivity"--it's
about
creating slick and stylish documents and cinema-quality
digital presentations that say precisely what you want them
to say.
While iWork '05 helps you create stunning documents and
presentations, the suite doesn't come with any in-depth
documentation of its own. That's where iWork '05: The
Missing Manual comes in. The book that should have been in
the box, it gives you everything you need to master iWork
'05.
Seamlessly integrated with the wildly popular iLife '05 and
designed to take advantage of the advanced typography and
graphics engine of Mac OS X, iWork is actually two separate
programs: Pages and Keynote 2. Pages is a brand-new,
streamlined word processor and page layout program that
allows nonprofessionals to quickly and painlessly produce
gorgeous brochures, newsletters, letters, invitations,
product data sheets, and more. You can start documents from
scratch or use one of the 40 professionally designed
templates as a starting point. Keynote 2 is a significant
upgrade to Keynote, Apple's PowerPoint-like presentation
software that allows you to build unique presentations,
demonstrations, storyboard animations, interactive
slideshows, and more.
Like every Missing Manual, this one is refreshingly
entertaining and scrupulously detailed. iWork '05: The
Missing Manual gives you all the essentials of Pages and
Keynote 2, including an objective look at each program's
capabilities, its advantages over similar programs, and its
limitations. The book delivers countless goodies that you
won't find anywhere else: undocumented tips, tricks, and
secrets for getting the very best results from both exciting
new applications.
With the iWork '05 suite and iWork '05: The Missing Manual,
you are totally equipped to give your work the style it
deserves.
