A great many of the exercises in this book require the electronic templates specially created for the class (apparently this book was written by some Community college folks for one of their classes). NO CD or URL accompanies the book to access the electronic templates leaving readers SOL for some of the exercises. Even at used book prices, it wasn't worth it.

This program is everything that the seller decribed. I was uncertain when I tried reading the instruction manual, so I tossed it. I learned this program through trial and error. I have a good looking newspaper because of it.
