Low End Designer Reader Survey
- 2004.09.29
The Low End Designer needs your help. This column was planned to
simply run for three months, but it has been such a success that it
is going to continue past its planned run. We still have plenty of
material to cover including typography, scanning, hints and tips,
and lots of software reviews.

you would like the series to go. Please answer as many of the
following questions as you can and send your replies to me via
