I would like to receive user's impressions of the PageStream and Professional Page desktop publishing packages. I do not yet have access to a laser printer so that may figure in to your comments. Also, if anyone has information about comparable (or better, with similar price) products, send those comments to me. I will post a summary of comments, if there are requests mailed to me. Thanks, -- -- Mark Osbourne uucp: ...!uunet!dayvb!fac5 -- SAIC, Dayton, Ohio, Internet: fac5%dayvb@uunet.uu.net,fac5@dayton.saic.com '

The latest issue of AmigoTimes has an in depth comparision of the two packages. I personally use PageStream, but be warned that it is still buggy. A new upgrade (free to registered owners) is promised RSN. BTW, if you are doing any sort of DTP on the Amiga, AmigoTimes is a great resource. The entire mag is published using Amigas and Pro Page, and always contains a lot of DTP info. - Ron

However, I don't buy it. Why? $9.95 is too much to pay for a magazine. They really should drop the disk, especially since it doesn't seem to contain original programs (ala Compute's Amiga Resource or Amiga +). I would spend mayber $4.95 for it. -Evan _______________________________________________________________________________ | Evan Jay Mitchell EECS/ERL Industrial Liaison Program | | mitchell@janus.berkeley.edu University of California at Berkeley | | Phone: (415) 643-6687 | | "Think, it ain't illegal...yet!" - George Clinton | |_____________________________________________________________________________|

Check out the current issue of AmigoTimes. It has a comparison of
Professional Page and Pagestream which includes dot matrix, typeset and
color separation examples. Very interesting.
