"What a great little book! The short, concentrated explanations are an ideal reference for students. Comprehensive coverage of the subject. An ideal pocket guide..." Rhiannon Robinson, University of Cumbria, UK. "I think this book is a great technical resource ... Written in a conversational manner which makes it very easy to engage and digest - perfect for the student audience." Terry Elkins, Grant MacEwan University, Canada. "I have the Visual Dictionary of Graphic Design, so I knew that this would follow the same format. An excellent visual descriptor plus straightforward text just right for finding out or just reminding yourself of important things every level of student should know or begin to know." Vicki Winteringham, Norwich University College of the Arts, UK. "The practical terms chosen are spot on for students just learning the production terminology for printing." Elsi Vassdal Ellis, Western Washington University, USA.
