We are looking for PC-based text-formatting and graphics packages that include:

    - screen previewing and laser printer output

    - input an ASCII file with markup (troff preferably) and output
        typeset-quality text (proportional spacing, tables, titles, etc.)

    - chart capability (bar, pie, line, etc.) for the graphics

    - run-time free for delivered applications

I want to hear about your experiences.
Thanks for any (e-mail) help ...
