Adobe discontinues PageMaker, offers plug-ins for InDesign. Adobe Systems Inc. will announce on Monday that the company is discontinuing ongoing development of PageMaker, Adobe's Mac OS 9 page layout application. However, Adobe is not leaving its PageMaker customers without a way to upgrade to InDesign and keep the same workflow they have become accustomed to in PageMaker. [MacCentral]
I remember how amazed I was when I first got my hands on PageMaker version 1 many, many years ago. I taught a Special Topics class showing how PageMaker and a LaserWriter could make a huge difference for small businesses. I still use PageMaker on a regular basis. Farewell, old friend.
