I was happy as a clam with ProPage 1.3, also, UNTIL someone I was doing
a job for asked me if I could put a line on a diagonal. I futzed around
with ProPage for six hours, trying to get it to do a rotate, which is a
ROYAL pain, and failed. It just couldn't be done, I told my client.

A week later, I found a used copy of Pagestream 1.6 for $40 and in a
"what the heck" mood, I bought it. Rotation was easy; tags were great.
The big advantage of ProPage is the integration with Transcript/write,
but that's the only advantage IMHO. It's wonderful  being able to import
more than just ProDraw clip art (and Pagestream 2.1 does ProDraw clips
as well!...
