		NEWSPAPER FRONT END PAGEMAKER SYSTEMS
-	-	-	-	-	-	-	-	-	-

I am looking for information on/about companies that provide front end
page makeup systems for major newspapers. 

Also any info about satellite/facsimile transmission of data to remote
printing plants etc done by major publications. What is the state of the art?
What companies make such equipment?

These days even computers like the Apple Mac can drive industrial photo-
typsetters like Linotype etc. Does that mean that a newspaper can be brought 
out (published daily) using just an Apple Mac based system?

I have used Pagemaker on the mac but wonder if there is any software package
for it that allows Full Newspaper Size Page makup.

I have also seen a "color scanner of 35mm slides" from Nikon that feeds the
data thru an RS 232 to computers (like the MAC IIcx?). Does that mean that 
people can now bring out color magazines using such "desktop" stuff?

Any information and suggestions on this subject would be appreciated.

I would appreciate if you would email me directly.

Thanks


Imran
