PCX is the PC Paint format and is very common. If you use
a conversion program such as Hijaak you can convert just about
any graphics format to PCX. Hijaak is recommended no matter
what you get. It expands the range of clip art you can buy.

I use Publish-It. It is a very nice compromise between the expensive
but more powerful DTP programs such as Pagemaker and the lower
price but less powerful programs. I have notice a slight problem
with my Epson printer. Every once in a while a line of text will
get squeezed down requiring quite a lot of work to fix and sometimes
I just gave up. It is rare and if you can get by with less than letter
perfect print then it is a minor problem.
