To use the saved files that are already out there, they would want too use the program that designed them.

Pagemaker and Quark are essentially the same, very similar and I know Pagemaker will import Quark files. (Plus it has a filter for MsPublisher also)

I knew that Indesign would import Pagemaker files but it changes them so much you have to essentially re-layout the publication all over again. Not worth the time nor effort to import.

For the PC platform MS Publisher and Serif Page plus are two low end page layout publications. I use publisher for most everyday layouts (short 2-10 pages) .

Pagemaker, Quark were/are designed for much more critical work that needs much finer tweaking than what Publisher/Serif would do.

When designing publicity material I would use Pagemaker over Publisher.

Pagemaker is no longer supported, but I still love the program.



Thanks Stewart...
Your information is real helpful. I agree with you about the elegant simplicity of PageMaker, reminds me of an MGB I once drove, no chips or circuit boards only a little more complex than a lawn mower.
