iPod: The Missing Manual (Missing Manuals)

This book was written and edited in Microsoft Word X on various Macs.

The desktop-software screenshots were captured with Ambrosia Software's Snapz Pro X ( http://www.ambrosiasw.com ) for the Mac, and TechSmith's SnagIt for Windows ( http://www.techsmith.com ). Adobe Photoshop 7 and Macromedia Freehand were called in as required for touching them up.

The book was designed and laid out in Adobe PageMaker 6.5 on a PowerBook G3 and Power Mac G4. The fonts used include Formata (as the sans-serif family) and Minion (as the serif body face). To provide the and symbols, and the iPod button symbols (like and ), custom fonts were created using Macromedia Fontographer.

The book was generated as an Adobe Acrobat PDF file for proofreading and indexing, and finally transmitted to the printing plant in the form of PostScript files.
