Pagemaker? or InDesign? I may arrive late to the discussion but here are my five cents: 1. I began Graphic Design (and Pagemaker) when it was still running in windows 286, a long while ago. I have worked with all versions, up to 6.75, which runs smoothly in XP! (No complaits). I migrated to Indesign in version CS2. Why Pagemaker? lightweight, light lo load, smooth and easy to run for text based publications (attorney books and other legal stuff). Why InDesign? Heavy Duty, strong support for high volume, graphics and major tweaks in publications. (magazines, rich in media and with tons of images, transparencies and silhouettes). From my Point of View, Adobe may resucite Pagemaker as an InDesign "Light" or "InDesign Express" to satisfy the low level publications, and keep the InDesign CS3 for the high-end rich media publications. I definitely find it useless to buy InDesign for text oriented publications when Pagemaker does the job waaaay much faster and easier!

Thanks.
