By the way, does or will PageStream/PPP accept EPS files?  I
remember this is one of the features Softlogik put in their ads.  I
hope they doesn't cancel this feature.  Anyway, if Softlogik can get
PageStream to work stably, with its font outline technique and flexible
printer support (being able to load printer drivers in at any time),
ability to rotate objects, the ST can have a  DTP program WIth more
powers in many Aspects than PageMAker and Ventura Publisher!  Even
if Calamus (sp?) comes out, Softlogik still have one of the best
DTP
program ever created for any computer.  What's funny is that if
Atari had a working version of GDOS back in 1985, Softlogik will not
use their custom fonts and driver, and today's PageStream may just
be another Timeworks Desktop Publisher which is an excellent program
but suffers from the use of GDOS.                        

All the above is just my own opinion.
