As Paul already wrote, Xara is not the industry standard.

Of course I don't only use Xara for my work.

Adobe is, so to say, the industry standard not only in Germany. Since I am a freelance graphic designer, I can choose the software that suits me best.

I follow Afinity with excitement and work with Afinity Photo as a Photoshop replacement very gladly.
The new Afinity Publisher is still in the beta phase and serious functions to replace Indesign are still missing.

For me, Xara is the universal Swiss army knife for my work that comes into play when it is needed.
In another thread I have written down my experiences while typesetting a book with Xara. https://www.talkgraphics.com/showthr...v16&highlight=
