Aldus Corp has a new release 4.0 of its Pagemaker desktop publishing program for the Apple Computer Inc that attempts to minimise the great drawback of such programs that word processing and page creation are completely separate functions, whereas the one-man publishing outfit needs to be able to do both concurrently: it adds a new Story Editor text-only window for faster creation of original text or editing imported files directly in PageMaker; it needs a Mac Portable, SE/30 or larger with 2Mb and a hard disk, and costs $800, next quarter.
