Let us dwell on the history of our magazine in more detail. Founded in 1996, the oldest in the Russian computer periodicals by the publishing house ComputerPress, it was initially focused on electronic publishing. This is also indicated by his name Computer Publishing Artistry (Art of Computer Publishing). Initially, the magazine was thought of as a Russian-language analog of the American publication, which after a while was supposed to become purely Russian - the share of licensed material was supposed to be gradually reduced (by the way, the same way the publishing house's flagship, ComputerPress magazine) went the same way. The year 1998 is a turning point in the history of CompuArt, it was in that year that the concept of filing materials and content acquisition began to change. In our everyday life, the notion of a topic appeared. The thematic plan is drawn up in the middle of the previous year and serves as a starting point for all work on the journal. Twelve themes in terms of the number of issues. Different themes intersect with the themes of the largest Russian and world exhibitions, of which we are always participants. Literally from the first issue for 1998, CompuArt began to increase the circulation, which at the moment is 10,000 copies. Along with the topic of the issue, there are also regular columns in the magazine, from which the reader learns in due time about the latest technology and software updates, gets to know how to better use them in their work. New in the journal for this year were the sections devoted to materials for printing and publishing: paper and cardboard, paints, forms and many other things necessary for the production of high-quality printing products. There was a section of testing, Our test lab is now engaged in studying the properties of the most advanced prepress and printing equipment. The magazine quickly formed a circle of its authors, it began to cooperate leading specialists of Russian and foreign companies, the magazine is provided with a steady stream of press information and invitations to the most important international forums in the field of publishing and printing. In general, Compuart has taken place - this is evidenced by the dynamics of the number of subscribers, and the interest of advertisers, and the nature of the readers' letters, which both in quantity and spirit differ for the better from those that we received at first. the leading experts of Russian and foreign companies began to cooperate in it, the magazine is provided with a steady stream of press information and invitations to the most important international forums in the field of publishing and printing. In general, Compuart has taken place - this is evidenced by the dynamics of the number of subscribers, and the interest of advertisers, and the nature of the readers' letters, which both in quantity and spirit differ for the better from those that we received at first. the leading experts of Russian and foreign companies began to cooperate in it, the magazine is provided with a steady stream of press information and invitations to the most important international forums in the field of publishing and printing. In general, Compuart has taken place - this is evidenced by the dynamics of the number of subscribers, and the interest of advertisers, and the nature of the readers' letters, which both in quantity and spirit differ for the better from those that we received at first.
