Adobe PageMaker 7 by Adobe Systems Inc.
Create professional-quality publications
- Quickly lay out publications by creating frames to hold text and graphics, applying master pages to apply different page designs within a single publication, and using layers to set up a single file for multiple versions of a publication.
- Type and format text directly in layout view, or edit using the built-in story editor.
- Typeset your text professionally by using kerning and tracking.
The good: Cranks out PDF files for a variety of hardware; intuitive point-and-click interface; creates catalogs by merging data from spreadsheets and databases.
The bad: Four times as expensive as Microsoft Publisher; HTML conversion generates poor-looking pages.
