Hi there folks...well back from the honeymoon and anxious to get
back into the land of the Amiga. Got a couple of questions which
I hope someone can help me with.
I have been toying with the idea of doing a little Desktop publishing
for several community services and social clubs which I am active
in. I have seen advertisments/reviews for many DTP packages and have made
up a short list of 3 possibles to purchase.
o Professional page from gold disk
o Pagestream from Software Logik
o City Desk by Microsearch
I'd like to hear from folk out there who have any of these packages
and could list a few of the pro's and cons...
I will shortly be purchasing a Panasonic P4450 laser printer -
provided it is post-script compatible (checking this out at the
moment) and plan to do quite a range of DTP from programs for
the local amateur theatre to newsletters for my Paintball social
club...
as always - any and all input welcome and appreciated...
cheers
Phil

I use Professional Page quite a bit and am very happy with it.
Although it will work in 640x200, it works best in 640x400, so you
will have to put up with a lot of screen flicker. Flicker Fixer
or a long persistance monitor are recommended. The program needs
at least 1 meg. Dot matrix output is very poor. Best used for
Postscript output only.
