Stewart, i wouldn't shorten it. In English we ar eproud of our titles. If you are a "Desktop Publisher", well you write that on your card. Boldly.
Don't be timid in official English.
It's only when you get to Vice President that you shorten that to "VP" or else if you write out "Vice President" on your business cards you look like an ambitious jackal waiting to release your ninjas with forehead lasers at the earliest oppurtunity to take out the guy in the President's chair. And that'd just be bad form.

What *is* a desktop publisher anyway?
I haven't heard that title since Microsoft released Publisher. Is it one who makes birthday flyers?
