Pre-order CSS for Print Designers Now.
New Riders publishes the best technical and design authors on the planet, with titles from leading designers like Jeffrey Zeldman, Khoi Vihn, Dan Cederholm and Ethan Marcotte.
Print designers work in images, shapes, and color: not code. The last thing many of them want to do is to translate their work into mono-spaced tags and numbers, divs and ids. But print designers can’t ignore the web and producing a design for the web has become a common part of a complete graphics package. And, knowing the basics of CSS is an essential ingredient for success.
