Michael, Compared to PPage, I can't think of much PageStream lacks. There are many areas where, IMO, PageStream is superior. Font handling and management, for example. One thing I do like about PPage, though, is the ability to specify the amount of spacing between paragraphs. In PPage 3.0 you had to use style tags to get at this feature, but in PPage 4.0 you don't. PPage lets you enter a percentage value for the spacing, but a proper leading option would be handy as well. I find paragraph spacing useful for letters and other single-column documents. (Of course, using it in multi-column docs is a no-no.) I agree with Chris that numerical editing of box parameters is more cumbersome in PageStream than in PPage. Otherwise, I also agree with Chris. Forget about PPage and set your sights on QuarkXpress. -Dave (via AutoPilot)
