InDesign has always been aimed at the PageMaker (and Quark) markets

Adobe end-of-lifed PM quite some time ago... if you go to their Print Products

I absolutely have to and have some time to learn it, or when I don't have a
choice and have a deadline breathing down my neck?"
Just in passing, ID is a very nice program, worlds better than PM, I think.
