PageMaker 4.0 for the PC: new features for long documents
Article Abstract:
PageMaker 4.0 for Windows 3.0, from Aldus Corp, is a $795 publishing program that retains a design-oriented framework while offering several new functions, including word processing, facilities for linking and managing files, improved control over type, the ability to generate a table of contents, and index and table creation features. Up to 999 pages may be contained in any one document file. For documents longer than 999 pages, it is possible to link several document files together under a single publication umbrella. Another new feature is a search-and-replace function that can be implemented with text strings, whole words or specific character styles. The software requires an 80286-based PC, 2Mbytes of RAM, a 20Mbyte hard disk, an EGA monitor and a mouse. Upgrades are priced at $175. Data can be accepted from tab-delimited text, file or spreadsheet formats.

All the right moves
Article Abstract:
Installing PC Pagemaker is a trial-and-error process, and the first step involved is to set up the Microsoft Bus mouse. If there are any problems, such as a reported 'installation failure', be sure to try changing the adapter card's interrupt level. The next step is to install Microsoft Windows. Any problems in this stage might be solved by buying a new mouse. Installation of Pagemaker itself should go smoothly, followed by the installation of Bitstream's Fontware Installation Kit, which is well-describe in the manual. Printer and screen font sizes should be predetermined, and a card listing the names of all fonts and their meaning is included in the manual. Be sure that the fonts to be used are listed under the proper heading and file.
