From an ad in PC Magazine (March 26, 1991), call 1-800-831-9679
for your free working model of Ami Pro.

I assume you mean compared to the non-demo version :-)
The biggy is that you can't save files, but you can print.
Also, no thesaurus or spell checker.  As someone else mentioned,
they conveniently left out the import filter for their major 
competitor - Word for Windows.

Personally, I'm not impressed.  But I have W4W and Pagemaker 4.0....
I was especially disappointed with the drawing features - it's not
for illustrating technical papers, more for lines and fills.
Also, the image stuff doesn't work with 32 grey scale images (I
know, I should get a better scanner...).
