      > Adobe may resucite Pagemaker as an InDesign "Light" or "InDesign Express"
      to satisfy the low level publications




Nice idea, but PM is just plain old and out of date - poor network functionality, not compatible with Vista, lacks import filters for tables and updated text formats, no character styles, screen display of images needs improving, PDF creation very last year, &c. &c.

The work required to bring it up to speed just isn't worth it.
