    I don’t want to start a war, but this really just encourages the use of Publisher in a realm, the professional, where it shouldn’t even encroach!

    When I was in publishing, the only thing we despised worse then receiving an ad from Publisher was one from Word Perfect!

    However, I suppose so many diy’ers are doing more themselves these days that they’re bound to cross paths with higher-end output and thus the need may be there…..
