I don't believe that Aldus has ever said anything publicly about what will be
in the next release of PageMaker. Aldus has been soliciting the requests of
its users on the Aldus forum on CompuServe. I do know that full S & R is NOT
the most requested feature for PM4; rotation of objects in 1 degree increments
is, followed by search & replace, grouping, baseline to baseline leading, 
custom line weights and styles, etc. If anyone is really interested in this
list, send me E-mail, and I'll pass a copy on to you.

I just wish they would do something to improve the performance of PM3. Here's
my prediction: by the time that PageMaker 4.0 (or whatever) ships, QuarkXPress
will have most, if not all, of its features, and will do them better and
faster.
