AG) “Macintosh Computers Have Revolutionized Newspaper Graphics Department” lhe Macintosh has “revolutionized the newspaper graphics depart- ment” at Knight-Ridder Tribune News Graphics Network. Until recently, if a newspaper wanted to include comprehensive black-and- white or color graphics with a breaking news story, the production constraints were such that finished artwork had to be submitted by noon. Ifa major event happened after lunch, you could forget the artwork. Today, thanks in large part to Apple Macintosh desktop publishing technology, the deadline for submitting camera-ready artwork is 8:30 P.M. “Because we can create camera-ready art on the Macintosh, we've gained 8 1/2 hours of preparation time,” says George Rorick, director of graphics and technology at Knight-Ridder Tribune News (KRTN) Graphics Network, a partnership between Knight-Ridder and the Chicago Tribune that provides on-line information graphics to 500 newspapers in the United States and Europe. In the newspaper business, gaining 8 1/2 hours is like gaining a lifetime. Development of the Network In mid-1985, Knight-Ridder’s director of graphics and technology, Roger Fidler, installed a Macintosh 512K computer and an Apple LaserWriter printer in his office and began creating news graphics using Claris® MacDraw software. The LaserWriter was fine for the development of camera-ready art in his own office, but supplying graphics to Knight- Ridder’s newspapers across the country presented a problem. Soon it became apparent that he could improve overall efficiency if he could solve the problem of sending data to other sites. “Previously, newspapers had only two altematives for sending line art to each other,” says Fidler. “There was overnight mail or the wire service's laser photo machine. Unfortunately, the photo machines are designed for photo transmission, so line-art quality suffered and frequently required retouching at the receiving end.” Later in 1985, Knight-Ridder joined with General Electric Information Services Corporation (GEISCO) to help field-test AppleLink, a Macintosh- based network originally designed to link Apple dealers and Apple employees worldwide. Fidler liked the advantages of a store-and-forward system for simplifying the file-transfer process, so he arranged for GEISCO to set up a similar network for Knight-Ridder. In 1988, Knight-Ridder merged with the Chicago Tribune Graphics Service to form the Knight- Ridder Tribune News Graphics Network. Today, subscribers to the network can access KRTN's services by clicking a PressLink icon that appears on their Macintosh screen and typing ina password. A menu appears that gives users the opportunity to select from a range of different informational services, including the KRTN Graphics Archives, a database of 4,000 graphic images; Step-by-Step Graphics, which includes drawing tips from some of the country’s top graphic designers; The Graphic Image Library, which contains the logos of Fortune 500 companies drawn in vector graphics; and KRTN’s Daily Graphics. “The beauty of the system is that it allows subscribers to reshape, resize, color, or otherwise change the graphic element to suit their own needs,” says Rorick. He estimates that 95 percent of the graphics are created in Claris MacDraw II, though some contributors send files in Adobe Illustrator 88 or Aldus FreeHand. The in-house artists use Macintosh II, IIcx, and IIci computers with large-screen monitors to generate artwork. In addition to the 15 to 20 news graphics developed each day, KRTN develops approximately 30 “enterprise pieces,” comprehensive graphics on major events. These graphics take up as much as a full page of the newspaper. Recent examples include America’s Greatest Moment in Space, created to commemorate the anniversary of the Apollo mission, and a graphics spread on IRS tax forms. KRTN and KRTN Infographic’s 500 subscribers include such major newspapers as the Boston Globe, the Miami Herald, Chicago Tribune, the Orange County Register, and a number of smaller U.S. newspapers. The subscriber base also includes newspapers in 25 European cities. Efforts are under way to broaden KRTN’s ability to share the news graphics produced by European papers with U.S. subscribers. “Macintosh computers have revolutionized the newspaper graphics ] department,” says Rorick. “Now we can be competitive. We no longer need stat cameras, composing rooms, and airbrushes, and best of all, the graphics look better. Another important aspect of the network is that it makes it possible for papers of all sizes to print graphics. Most newspapers don't have the resources on board that are required to produce information graphics, because it's expensive and time consuming.” Adds Fidler, “In an industry notorious for its slow newspapers by storm. It's a de facto standard platform, and I think its influence will only grow as it enters large papers’ advertising, promotion, and education departments.” acceptance of new technology, the Macintosh has virtually taken | A/UX 2.0.1 Now Available he A/UX operating system from Apple Computer provides access to the familiar, intuitive desktop of the Macintosh computer within the UNIX environment.

Individual prices, good only through April 1, are: = Macintosh Programming Fundamentals—S495, m_ Introduction to Object-Oriented Programming—$95 = Macintosh User-Centered Design—$95. Macintosh Programming Fundamentals features 36 interactive lessons to help a novice programmer proficient in C (or seasoned programmers from other platforms) gain the skills needed to program the Macintosh computer. Users see and hear solutions to lab exercises from within the development environment, and can tailor the level of code complexity to match their programming ability. These multimedia course materials illustrate Macintosh ROM routines and the Application Programming Interface (API) for the Macintosh Toolbox. Users are guided in creating a simple graphics editor consisting of drawing tools, windows, files, printing, and other versatile components of Macintosh applications. Introduction to Object-Oriented Programming is designed to improve programming performance for Macintosh C and Pascal programmers. Object-oriented programming models the natural way people think and solve problems, resulting in code that's often easier to understand, debug, and revise. The course can help users discover how object-oriented programming can reduce development, improve reusability of code, and reduce the cost of maintaining code—particularly for team programmers and for programmers who join a project after its inception. Users can choose to program in C++ or Object Pascal. The bilingual instruction, which requires MPW®, includes an informative videotape that introduces the essential object-oriented programming concepts and demonstrates object design. Program examples demonstrate basic object-oriented concepts such as inheritance, polymorphism, instantiation, and message sending. Macintosh User-Centered Design (not a CD-ROM product) uses an introductory videotape, workbook, and disk-based sample applications with source code to present the superior user-interface techniques and principles central to Macintosh software development, both domestically and intemationally.
