# allegedly pretty good,
proper beziers and layers and that kind of thing. Sounds like kind of a illustrator/p-shop/quark mish mash. Also it's already OSX native. Not used it yet, but Glamour has always been done in indesign in this country, apparantly, so it must work ok.

# indesign
is good.

I mean it's designed by people who actually have a clue about interface design AND can program software that actually works.

oh and it's 1/4 of the cost of Quark.

# do you use it?
i don't do as much print these days so only use quark now and again, let alone anything else. I kind of need a job to use it for, if you see what i mean.
ooh - anyone want to give me any freelance print work ;)
