Should Adobe PageMaker® users convert to InDesign CS4?
Adobe ceased developing the PageMaker codebase in 2002. Because of this, PageMaker no longer runs on the most recent operating systems from Microsoft or Apple; does not include a modern interface; is not integrated with the most recent versions of Photoshop, Illustrator, Dreamweaver, Flash, and Acrobat; does not offer important creativity tools such as support for transparency effects, object styles, and multicolor gradients; lacks sophisticated typographic controls; and does not support publishing interactive documents in Adobe PDF and SWF formats. Upgrading to InDesign CS4 will give you the tools you need to quickly and efficiently design and publish short- and long-form documents for delivery in print, Adobe PDF, or SWF.
