Comments and Reviews
A very complete Desktop Publishing Tools. It can do long serial briefings, creative Flyers or create pre-defined Layouts to just fill in. I really like their approach of updating and constantly adding new and great features. It's the best competitor in its niche field and beats InDesign IMO. The only drawback is that it's not available on Linux. I can understand why, because it's already small market has definitely no significant enough market on this platform, to be profitable, but still.
Stable, Complex, Good Alternative to InDesign
Pros and Cons based on Public Beta experience:
[+] Faster [+] Built-in Photo Filters and Effects [+] Photoshop-like Layer management [+] Intuitive TOC generation based on styles [+] Styles setup on the panel is convenient. [+] Intuitive Table Style options [?] No subscription
[-] No color separation preview [-] Slow path editing, changes appears with small lag. [-] No Pure Black viewport options. [-] Inch values are changing as integers when using arrow keys [-] No GREP alternatives [-] No IDML import like in Quark | Is presented in latest releases 1.8.x, not tested by me yet. [-] No independent cell styles [-] Non-convenient Overprint color option (available only as Global Color option) and doesn't work after PDF export at the moment (may be a bug) [-] No EPUB mastering [-] No linked/embeds explorer [-] No manual table cells sorting [-] Blurry UI fonts (maybe bug, it's dynamically changes while moving) [-] Leaves registry data keys after uninstallation.
