whether the posting of book reviews might be
appropriate for these newsgroups, an idea with which I
enthusiastically agree.
Bar none, my favorite intro-to-PostScript book is:
Learning PostScript, A Visual Approach
Ross Smith
ISBN# 0-938-151-12-6
$22.95
PeachPit Press
1085 Keith Ave
Berkeley, CA 94708
415 527 8555
415 524 9775 (fax)
800 283 9444
The book consists of a page of PostScript graphics faced by a page
which contains the PostScript code necessary to generate the image.
The book nicely proceeds from the simple to the sublime, and embodies
an interactive learning technique. I heartily recommend it.
