QuickSteps books are recipe books for computer users. They answer the question, “How do I...” by providing a quick set of steps to accomplish the most common tasks with a particular operating system or application.
The sets of steps are the central focus of the book. QuickSteps sidebars show how to quickly perform many small functions or tasks that support the primary functions. QuickFacts sidebars supply information that you need to know about a subject. Notes, Tips, and Cautions augment the steps; they are presented in a separate column so as not to interrupt the fl ow of the steps. The introductions are minimal rather than narrative, and numerous illustrations and fi gures, many with callouts, support the steps.
