While I have many criticisms of PageStream, I could never say that the
software is non-functional. I use it (v2.1) frequently to produce all sorts
of things … from the core artwork for record sleeves (which I then import
into Professional Page), to posters. DTP isn't my profession … but I sure
do a great deal.
The problems you describe sound as though they are related to your own set
up, or what you are trying to do with PageStream.
For instance, are you trying to do too much with your available memory? PS
does require quite a lot, especially when you a doing complex (multi-font)
documents.
Are you using PD fonts? Some do cause PS to have problems (partly due to PS
problems, partly due to bugs in the fonts which PS does not handle very
well).
Perhaps, if we work through this carefully, we can find out what the
problem is.
Mmm … I never thought I'd see the day I was defending PageStream 🙂
