Hi,

I'm a graphic designer in the process of learning HTML and CSS.

I really enjoy books and although I've read lots, I've never come across one that was specifically written to help make the transition from print design and production to web design and production.

As a print designer for many years, I already have a process and vocabulary. It would be nice to have a book that could take the things that print designers are familiar with and translate them to web design terms, written someone who understands where you're coming from.

Does anyone know of a book like this?

Thanks,
Laura

I always recommend the Quick Start Guides, they get you going and then you can learn more as you develop your style via online magazines like Smashing Magazine etc...
