	PageStream 2.1 has a price of somewhere around $175 and
every upgrade in the past has been free with the exception of
adding Compugraphic and Adobe font support, which was $75. You
might consider spending the money, as it isn't soooo expensive
and could make your life easier. A lot of people seem to prefer
it but they also warn that it takes time to learn workarounds for
all the quirks.

If you are a meanie, I hate to think what name that leaves most
