Re: Formatting a book in Designer Pro X9 (or Page & Layout Designer 9)
Sorry even though Gary's book was a success in its publishing I can't see people ignoring Serif's Page Plus. It is around the same money, it has master pages with page layers, import Word docs and will maintain layout, output PDF's to vers. X-3, can use all types of fonts, produce and style tables from csv files, mail and photo merge, end to end CMYK control, advance find & replace including style and colour. Up and down this programme is aimed totally for DPT not a vector + programme that can do short stories/books. On the negative points for Page Plus it has an awful user interface they have various designing tools which are poor which I never use bar the image cutout studio and when you compare the designing tools to Xara, Xara wins hands down. Here I am agreeing with Tony' in part if they want to be considered against P/Plus they have a lot of work to do and I don't think they will ever have full end to end CMYK colour control which is a must for print.
Design is thinking made visual.
