CompuServe Messages

Andrew, Thanks for your comments. I appreciate them. The service bureau I was using was Mac-only and didn't know anything at all about the "Omega" as they called it, and perhaps even less about printing to the Compugraphic. It was a troubling decision to buy PageStream, but I should tell you that I will still use ProPage for some things, as each program definately has its strengths and weaknesses. I have seen PPage 2.0, and agree that improvements were made. PageStream has a substantial number of features, but it's not completely bug-free (even in 2.1), as I'm sure you probably are aware of. I hope that eventually ProPage will surpass PageStream in the area of importing/exporting other formats and such features, because I would gladly reconsider my decision. But I should tell you also that I do also own Professional Draw, your ProScan scanner, your Outline Fonts package, and ComicSetter, and use them all quite often (especially ProDraw and ProScan). Although your company lost me in regards to ProPage (for now), I am still a staunch fan of your company and consider your products to be first-rate. While I'm replying, I'd also like to address something that was brought up by me in recent weeks to others regarding ProScan: I am dismayed to hear that your company has no plans to upgrade what is the only sheetfed scanner in the Amiga market. I bought the setup when it first came out for $1000, and have used it religiously since. I only recently discovered from Canon that this model of scanner is capable of 32-shade gray scales as well as OCR, which is SORELY lacking for the Amiga! ProScan would be a likely candidate for these features, and I'd just like to again put my vote in that direction. These features would be worth quite a bit to me, and I'm sure to others who use the package. I'd love to see Gold Disk at least reconsider their current plans and continue to support ProScan. J.R.
