Subject:Word vs. Pagemaker From:Michael Johnson <michaelj -at- OECMED -dot- COM> Date:Mon, 12 Jan 1998 18:14:33 -0700
I started using Pagemaker about 4 months ago after using Word 6, Word 95, and Word 97 for most of the previous three years. I have these observations:
1. My blood pressure is down a full 20 points.
2. My artwork is all present and accounted for.
3. My productivity has increased about 40%.
4. None of my documents has crashed or choked, and some of them are really big.
Has anybody else had a similar experience?
Thanks!
