[MacGroup] Publisher or something like it?

2007-07-26 Thread Ann Richmond
I think I've seen something about this before on the list but I can't 
find it so pardon me if this is redundant...

I use Publisher on my work laptop to do newsletters and brochures and I 
find it easy and effective. But my MS Office bundle at home on the Macs 
doesn't have Pub included. I don't need a big expensive high powered 
layout program.

Would anyone have suggestions?

Thanks
Ann Richmond

You can track down an older copy of Adobe Pagemaker - it's been  
replaced in the Adobe line by InDesign so there should be people out  
there with surplus copies of Pagemaker they're looking to part with  
(start with eBay, I pulled up about a dozen listings by searching  
pagemaker mac, 7.0 was the last version). It's less elegant than  
InDesign or Quark Xpress but should be far less expensive to acquire,  
and unlike Publisher, commercial printing houses will accept  
Pagemaker files for production.
