是否曾好奇为什么有些字体排版看起来比其他的更专业、更考究？答案就在于专为专业 typesetting 制定的技巧和规则之中。不出所料，这些方法与 Typing 1A 课程中传授的训练大相径庭。本书不仅阐明了传统排版所遵循的准则，还解释了其背后的逻辑。该书原版名为 The Mac is Not a Typewriter，销量超过7.5万册，收获无数好评，并荣获 Publishers Marketing Association 颁发的著名 Benjamin Franklin Award。专为……定制

我最早是在 Robin Williams 的书里看到这些准则的[1]。2000年代中期我读过她写的几本（《写给大家看的设计书》和《写给大家看的排版书》），作为一个业余桌面排版爱好者，我发现它们非常管用。如果哪个外行人想了解排版的基本原则，我强烈推荐她的书。……
I first came across these guidelines in Robin William's books[1]. I read a couple of them (The Non-Designer's Design Book and The PC is Not a Typewriter) back in the mid 2000s and found them to be very useful as an amateur desktop publisher. I thoroughly recommend her books for any lay person with an interest in understanding the basic principles of typography.…
这在 Robin Williams 写的《写给大家看的排版书》（The PC Is Not a Typewriter）[1] 里有讲。（不，不是那个演戏的 Robin Williams。）大约在 1999 年读到这本书时，我把敲两个空格的习惯改成了敲一个，改起来其实没有我想象的那么痛苦。我学到了……

……（https://www.amazon.com/Mac-Not-Typewriter-2nd/dp/0201782634）或许能帮他们对样式有点概念。这书是 15 年前的了，针对的是印刷品，面向的是 Mac 用户，不过这些都不怎么打紧。（对于 PC 用户，有一本《写给大家看的排版书》（The PC is not a typewriter）(https://www.amazon.com/Pc-not-typewriter-Robin-Williams/dp/0...)，但那本年代更久远，所以除非你的用户还在用 WordPerfect 或 Ventura，否则我不确定它会不会比原版更有用……
…(https://www.amazon.com/Mac-Not-Typewriter-2nd/dp/0201782634) may help get them some idea about style. It is 15 years old, targets print, and is aimed at Mac users, but that doesn’t matter that much. (For PC users, there is “the PC is not a typewriter” (https://www.amazon.com/Pc-not-typewriter-Robin-Williams/dp/0...), but that is even older, so I’m not sure it will be more useful than the original, unless your users are using WordPerfect or Ventura…
Robin Williams 在她的书《写给大家看的排版书》（The PC is not a Typewriter）中专门用了一章来讲这个问题。她也是这么认为的。http://www.amazon.com/Pc-Not-Typewriter-Robin-Williams/dp/09...
