Last time I checked with Adobe, you cannot transfer the workspace settings. To make it easier with my last laptop transfer I took a screenshot of my workspace, printed it on 11x17" paper and duplicated it that way. Remember to save the workspace after configuring or you'll have to set it all

Trouble with many commercial designs is that "design" outweighs communication. So many graphic designers focus on "what looks nice" rather than "what works to promote the purpose of the document". Granted, that's at best a failure in the training of such designers, but it does constitute a warn

There are a number of ways to delineate heading levels. The general rule is that they should be: a. Clear b. Beautiful ;-) It's real easy to create an ugly design. It's real hard to create a beautiful one - which is why there are folks called graphic designers. For those of us who aren't (suc
