A Guide to The 2012 Xone

[Gare]

Hear Ye, Hear Ye—

Much attention has been focused on the video tutorial in January on The Xara Xone, and that's a good thing, because it gives everyone the chance to make fun of my American accent.

But I wasn't hired and underpaid to only do a tutorial a month.

No.

Every month, I'm going to post a new tutorial, video or text, PLUS:

• A free piece of content. January offers a typeface I created, no strings attached, just download and install it and create very striking headlines in your DTP work.

• A Tips and Tricks entry. This is a new Xara Xone section I've created by sort of combining Gary Priester's Workbook series with his tips section. Expect the tips I write to be on the longish side, and think of them as the second part of a "double feature", the monthly tutorial being the main event.

Notice there's a Call for Entries on the home page. If you have something you'd like to share, by way of a tip, a gallery you'd like to be the center of for a few months here, or anything else you'd like to volunteer to make the Xone YOUR Xone...I'm all ears.

And I hide them under my long hair.

Here's my notes, please do explore!



My Best,

—Gary
