The best I have seen so far is PageMaker, from Aldus Corp.  It can merge
documents and drawings (both bitmapped and 'object oriented'), from an
incredible number of sources, including all the popular word processing
and 'paint' type programs, and is designed to run under Microsoft Windows,
although that is *not* a requirement.

All things considered, PageMaker and a laser printer (of HP quality or
better) can produce some outstanding publications.
