desktop publishing (DTP) An application of computers that enables small companies and individuals to produce reports, advertising, magazines, etc., to near-typeset quality. Modern systems, which simulate many of the functions of professional typesetting systems, consist of a
personal computer, using DTP software, and a
laser printer. The software is designed to format text into pages using a wide range of different typefaces. A common feature is the ability to preview each page on the computer's screen before it is printed and to import pictures and diagrams into the page.
