Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
PagePlus X5 is the latest version of the award winning DTP program from Serif. I've been using PagePlus off an on since the very first edition, and it just gets better and better. However, that is not to say it is lacking in anyway, in fact it absolutely bulging with impressive features. Whether you are a home user wanting to produce some flyers for your school fate or a business wanting to produce your company brochure PagePlus can handle it with ease. Infact if it comes in print then PagePlus can do it, from small business cards up to full novels, magazines, newspapers and large scale posters.

PagePlus can open, edit and create Adobe PDF documents as well as being able to import various file formats including Microsoft Word and OpenOffice Documents as well as several others. Also PagePlus can import a huge number of image formats, connect directly to your scanner or from a Phto-CD. It can even imbed objects in your documents such as a spreadsheet, so that when you double click on it the appropriate program is launched to edit it. Saving is limited to either a PagePlus Publication, Template or exporting to PDF.

Of course, if like me you've got the last release (X4) then you will be wondering if it worth upgrading to X5? The anser is not a simple yes or no as it will depend very much on whether you need the new features. There is a handy description of the new features over on Serifs website [] that will help you decide whether the upgrade is worth it.

As for the editing/compostition features in PagePlus I can not even begin to list them all! Needless to say if you can think of it, then it is probably there, and some you'd never think of! Text wrapping, frames, flow control, page numbering, cross referencing, Contents/index creation, graphics editing (limited but sufficient) and lots more.

Support is very good, in particular via the official Serif forum, where you will often find Serif Staffers willing to help. I have reported bugs before on the forum and had them reported as fixed and included for the next update within hours! Also the general public on their are a helpful bunch and will do what they can to find a solution to you questions, be it a bug, a design qquestion or a 'how do I'...

So overall I would recommend PagePlus to everyone.

Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
Having just started a small business, I needed some software that I could use for my posters, flyers, adverts etc .. and page Plus X5 from Serif is proving to be all that I need, and much, much more besides.

There is no way I will ever get to use all the functions and tools that are contained within the subtle packaging .. but judging by the included instructions and guides if I tried I would need to set aside a year or three !

Not to say its complicated to use, its just thorough !

My last experience with software of this general sort was with a copy of CS3 .. and that was really good so I didn't really expect the same sort of intuitiveness from software costing a fraction of the price. I was wrong.

I set myself the task of creating a simple 6"x4" postcard style flyer and in a nutshell, I did it in a half hour. I could have spent longer, but mainly because I kept discovering tools I could experiment with !

It does exactly what it says it will, and if you have the time you can get a lot from this software .. for the price of the software and book that can really show you how to get the most from Page Plus X5 you could easily save money on designing your own printed material .. and have a bit of fun getting all creative !

Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
Given it's price I wasn't expecting much from PagePlus X5. Added to this I use Adobe's Creative Suite 5 on a daily basis so I tend to find any pretender to the throne usually laughably poor (I'll admit a degree of snobbery here). As it turns out that PagePlus X5 is pretty damn good.

Unlike CS5, which is a collection of separate (but closely tied) programmes, PagePlus is a page layout package with vector and bitmap editing abilities built-in. This does make life a bit easier for the novice, as they don't have to jump between programmes - or try and figure which one would be best for the task at hand.

After starting the programme you are invited to choose a template from a substantial library of letterheads, comps slip, business card and newsletters etc. The template can be followed rigidly or fiddled with how you see fit. Type styles, columns and colour-ways can all be changed with ease. Alternatively you can start with a blank sheet and go from there. There are also plenty of 'get you started' movies (and more) on the manufacturers website.

Placing bitmap images into the document is straight forward, and can be edited within a sub-programme using a pretty broad selection of of tools, allowing selections, colour corrections, transparency - in fact all most people will need. Vector drawings on the other hand are created directly on the page and although the control point handles were a bit clunky it's pretty easy to create quite sophisticated graphics with the supplied toolset.

Once you're done you can output your document in several formats including the print industry recognised X-1a format PDF (which is more than a lot of other competing software manages).

While it's not going to threaten the mighty (and expensive) Adobe Creative Suite it's hard to criticise PagePlus for the money. It's capabilities far exceeded my expectations and too be honest if all you want to do is create the odd advert or newsletter PagePlus X5 is all you need.
