SND's 2006 pagination survey

Article Abstract:

SND conducted an online survey on the pagination technology to analyze how the designers feel about this system, which they use to make the pages. Designers, instead of being on the verge of revolt, give generally positive grades to the main technology tools they use everyday but there is criticism regarding the limitations of the systems and they are very specific about the expectations they have from the technology.

Technology and design have intersected and evolved with the use of Macintosh computers and desktop graphics software in newsrooms that captures the information of creative people everywhere. This has made designers from being independent, creative players to being critical parts of a much larger process while it is observed that the designers' influence is directly associated with a mastery of tools.
