Subject:Need DTP recommendations From:Tracy Boyington <trlyboyi -at- GENESIS -dot- ODVTE -dot- STATE -dot- OK -dot- US> Date:Fri, 2 Feb 1996 15:46:18 +0000
Hello all
A colleague is looking for a desktop publishing package to do some
fairly simple stuff. His publications will probably be less than 100
pages, graphics will be line art or photos from a digital camera. He
wants to do all text inputting from within the DTP, so it's important
that it have a decent word processor. It will be running on a PC.
What would you recommend for this type of work, or do you know
a web source to find some unbiased reviews (yes, I've looked, but
I can't find much).
TIA
Tracy
