Since the desktop publishing boom started in 1982, the industry has exploded. Software, hardware, books and even trade papers have mushroomed to fill a market, which is expected to reach 50 billion dollars world wide by 1990. Not since the advent of the spreadsheet has a single application made such an impact on the computer industry. Large companies, small groups and even individiuals are using their computers to produce crisp, professional flyers, newsletters, signs and resumes quickly and easily, at a fraction of the cost of commercial typesetting. Desktop publishing has brought the power of the press to the people!
At Gold Disk, we believe in the best. For that reason, we have chosen the Commodore \b\iAMIGA\n to produce our desktop publishing system. The power of the \b\iAMIGA\n, it's superior graphics, large memory, and ease of use make it ideal for desktop publishing. \bPageSetter\n is a revolutionary new software tool designed to turn your \i\bAMIGA\n into a powerful desktop publishing workstation. An 'intuitive' user interface combines ease of operation with complete flexibility of page design. Use magnify to zoom in for detailed work, or pull back for the full page. Combine text (in different fonts and styles) and graphics with complete freedom, and enhance them with a variety of shadings and borders. Create stunning artwork and hard-hitting copy quickly and easily using the built in graphic and text editors or import them from your favourite \i\bAMIGA\n graphic or word processors. \bPageSetter\n also includes an extensive library of clipart, to allow you to get up and running right away.
And at all times, \b\s'WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET'\n
