DTP in Linux with Pagestream

“Remember Amiga? Well, if you’re old enough to remember that
platform, then you might remember the Pagestream desktop publishing
system. Pagestream began in 1986 as Publishing Partner for the
Atari Computers. By 1989 it was ported for the Amiga platform with
its current name Pagestream. Around 1996 Pagestream enjoyed a jump
to the Macintosh platform. And finally, in the present, Pagestream
is enjoying new life on the Linux, Mac, and Windows operating
system.

“Although Linux already enjoys a few powerful DTP applications
(Scribus for one), Mac enjoys Pagemaker and Quark Xpress, and
Windows enjoys Publisher (and others), there is always room for
more. And Pagestream takes a sort of “GIMP-like” approach to the UI
– so Linux users will be comfortable with working around the
elements of the tool. In this article I will show you how to get
working with Pagestream.”
