RE: PageMaker 6.5 (was "Possible activity...")

Lots of great things about PM 6.5 but you do have to know how to use
it. It isn't really an Adobe product but a late acquisition: Aldus
was the parent company. The only converter I know of is one that has
come with some editions of its successor program, Adobe InDesign,
which as far as I am concerned has an even more difficult interface.
I believe there's something called dtpforum where you could get good
answers to these questions.
