My first book (1980) on a typewriter. My second (1986) on a PC, in Word Perfect, then provided to published as a digital file. Third, (1994), on a PC again and provided to the publisher as laser-printed camera-ready copy on glossy high quality paper. Used WforW for the text pages, Aldus Intellidraw (now long extinct) for the graphics.
These days I produce a quarterly magazine for the Rolls-Royce Owners Club of Western Australia, full colour, and after dickering with various publisher, page layout etc programs decided my best bet was simply WforW again, result delivered as pdf to printers. Magazines also available on-line as pdf on Club website, and emailed to overseas members. The Club website is easy to find through Google.
