Infography is not only Desktop Publishing, for example 3d Maya or Autocad, both are parts of infography but not specified related with Desktop Publishing. Even more Ascii arts is also infography.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 200.112.11.38 (talk • contribs) 2006-03-21 21:07:32.

This page should note that among graphic designer and other profesionals who use page layout software, "desktop publishing" is used as in a pejorative sense. Page layout is the prefered nomenclature, and denotes the more profesional software packages of InDesign and QuarkXpress. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.129.121.79 (talk • contribs) 2006-06-01 07:35:15.
