[comp.sys.mac] simple desktop publishing

alms@cambridge.apple.com (Andrew L. M. Shalit) (11/28/89)

I'm looking for a *simple* desktop publishing program for my father.

What does simple mean?

It doesn't need kerning.
It doesn't need support for color separations.
It doesn't need generally complicated high-end features.

My dad basically wants to do columns and headlines and maybe throw
in some graphics.  He won't be doing anything large.  It needs to
be very easy to use.  (He still has trouble telling the difference
between MS Word, the Finder, and the standard-file dialog box.)

Is there any page-layout program that's as easy-to-learn as MacPaint?


Please e-mail responses.  I'll post a summary if there's interest.

 thanks!
