Desktop publishing (DTP) refers to the creation of documents using page layout software on a personal computer. It combines text and graphics to produce high-quality output, often used for brochures, newsletters, magazines, books, and other printed or digital materials. DTP software gives users precise control over typography, layout, and image placement, enabling them to design professional-looking documents without relying on traditional typesetting methods. The goal is to produce visually appealing and well-structured content for various communication purposes.
