- I used PageStream to write a rather long work (about 350 pages), so I'm
- rather familiar with the program.
-
- My advice:
- PageStream is great (even it has some bugs you only notice with large
- documents) but NOT on an A500!! It will be much to slow and in MedRes it
- is hard to write documents (I used PS on my old A1000 (which is more or
- less the same as an A500) too: It's just to slow there.)
- I recomend at least an A1200 (better A4000) to run the program. (I'm
- working on an A3000.)
-
- For your needs I think the program "Final Copy II" would do. It's easier
- to write documents there (no 'boxes' and other strange things..), you can
- have graphic elements and the output is as good as pagestreams.
- Most important: You can run it on your A500!
