It is!!!! It uses scalable fonts, not bitmapped fonts, so you can flip,
rotate, twist and size without _any_ jaggies.

Actually, I have version 1.5 for the Amiga.  There are some minor quirks
about the program I wasn't too fond of, like the slow interface, and 
the very buggy requestors.  The requestors seldom work for me.  When I
select a path in the DIR: gadget, I get an empty requestor.  Also, the
manual isn't too good either.  BUT after a full year of waiting, I think
I have a pretty good program here.  I've erased Pagesetter from my HD
and erased PPage too.  Despite all these bugs, I'm just happy that they've
finally sent me the program.
