I just received my Pagestream update package yesterday (updating from
v1.8 to v2.1).  My impression is that the new manuals are a lot
better, and there seem to be a number of new features.  I haven't had
a chance to finish installing it yet, though.

I have used v1.8 for quite a bit of work, and I will post a more
complete summary of v2.1 as soon as I have had a chance to do
something non-trivial in it (don't worry, that should be soon; I have
two letterheads, a business card, a logo, and a batch of tickets in my
"to-do" bin).

Pagestream v1.8 works well for the kinds of things I do (newsletters,
logos, and letterheads, mostly), and I am expecting more of the same
from v2.1.  I have tried most of the Amiga DTP programs on the market,
and feel that Pagestream is the best.  v1.8 has quirks; I simply learn
them and work around them --- I am hoping that v2.1 removes some of
the quirks and adds some new features.
