More on Ventura 1.0:
The footnote feature is EXTREMELY limited (no more than half a page).  You
cannot pre-type the footnote in your favorite text editor and translate it,
then copy it into a note.  You have to individually type each note WITHIN
the Ventura program, which is (given its bit-mapped status) slow.  You cannot
create endnotes.

Xerox's customer support people in Texas were arrogant and very non-cooperati
ve with me.  The will not answer letters or electronic mail.

In my opinion, they have a long way to go with this product for an organiza-
tion which needs help with widespread support.

I think I'll stick with MicroTeX and LaTeX for serious desktop publishing.
