PageMaker 7.0's new Data Merge feature lets you import data and images from spreadsheets and databases (but only as comma-delimited or TXT files, which you create using the export function of your spreadsheet or database) and merge them into a publication. And PageMaker has none of the weird limits of Publisher you can insert as many spot color elements in a document as you want. PageMaker supports high-resolution printing and color management, which ensures that color is always consistent, from proofs to final output. There's no doubt that PageMaker has it all over Publisher when it comes to advanced publishing jobs. If you want one program to produce both paper and HTML versions of documents, Publisher 2002 is a better bet. PageMaker's Web pages are only approximations of the originals the formatting is off and columns are misplaced, while PageMaker-created shapes such as ovals and boxes are never translated. Like version 6.5, PageMaker 7.0 can export documents in HTML format for Web publishing, but the results fall short of the much more affordable Microsoft Publisher.

We turned a PageMaker newsletter into a PDF file with just one click. And, as in version 6.5, you can easily output standard PDF files of any PageMaker documents. You can also access sophisticated Adobe Distiller functions and security features from within PageMaker. One welcome change is the ability to output PageMaker publications in a special tagged PDF file that displays text and graphics in similar fashion on all sorts of hardware: PCs, Macs, PDAs, and even cell phones. PageMaker 7.0 may look like its predecessor, but there's new gear under the hood. Frankly, we prefer the easier point-and-click approach. Power users can still work QuarkXPress-style by beginning with blank pages, then creating and placing boxes for text, images, or other elements. You can still point and click and drag and drop to rearrange elements or insert new ones or to launch one of the nearly 300 business templates to jump-start your page design. PageMaker made desktop publishing accessible early on, and that hasn't changed. But businesses on a budget (and all home users) should still steer toward Microsoft Publisher 2002.

PageMaker 7.0, with new tools for turning documents into PDF files and churning out catalogs from data in spreadsheets and databases, is best suited for small to midsized businesses that want to distribute Acrobat Reader-formatted files, produce sophisticated catalogs, and work on the Mac as well as the PC.

At $499, version 7.0 is still a tweener: too expensive for budget-conscious, home-based and small-business users and not powerful enough for professional designers. It has also been thumped in the price wars by low-end competitors such as Microsoft Publisher. PageMaker may have started the whole desktop publishing deal 16 years ago, but it has long played second banana to high-end QuarkXPress.
