I wouldn't buy Page Stream(PS) right now. Sotflogik (SL) just shipped version 1.0
of PS this week and the 'known bugs' list is over 24!! SL has indicated that another
version would be shipped within 30 days. But, SL has lied to their pre-paid customers
for almost a year about PPP (now PS), so I don't believe them at all.

PS won't use original PP fonts. New fonts must be created for PS.
PS won't read original PP documents. so, forget about using your past work.
All in all, I think that PS is a loser and should be avoided for at last six
more months. I don't think that SL can make it a viable, reliable product for
at least that time.

Of course these are just my opinions and you are welcome to ignore them!!
