It is substantially better than anything else I've tried (various
versions of Word; also MacPublisher, PageMaker), but the hyphenation
algorithm is iffy.  It is saved, however, by the ability to turn it off.

By the way - it was great fun talking someone through the first steps
of the Mac and RSG and then leave.  The guy works with various forms
of publication and had never seen anything like this combination.  We
started about 9am, I left about an hour later, and before noon he had
a really nice version of his brochure.
