.: Reflection :.

First of all, I would like to thank Miss Jenny for teaching me the subject of Issues in Publication and Design. To be honest, this is my very first experience to own a blog. The features such as tools and other graphical user interface are user-friendly than i thought. After attending IPD class onwards, it has totally changed the way how I read on an articles and its content in a journal or any information's.

Throughout this semester, I have learnt a lot on the rules and regulations when it comes to how to publish a documents using a proper texts and pictures to deliver the message out to the audiences, (Schriver, 1997). Document design by (Walsh, 2006), select a suitable audiences or readers by (Putnis and Petelin, 1996).

Besides that, the content in the blog stands an important role to deliver the message out to the audience. Due to the issue of publication in Malaysia is limited, bloggers in Malaysia have limited freedom to voice out their thoughts and they will need to think twice before putting words or pictures in their blog.

In all, Issues in Publication and Design (IPD) is a beneficial subjects to learn. For those people who are interested in blogging, webpage design, and even for people who wants to start up their online business, I strongly suggest you to learn Issues in Publication and Design and Good Luck !
