@stonetoolsblog@mastodon.social It's probably still good for paper publishing or Fixed layout Electronic distribution but it's terrible for reflowable ebooks. Also ghastly that it's now rental only.

    @stonetoolsblog@mastodon.social I also had Aldus photostyler on Win 3.x and for decades it had the best GUI to rotate an image to vertical or horizontal. Later had Photoshop, PSP5, PSP7 & then The Gimp on XP, Win7 and now Linux since 2017. I abandoned DTP SW about the time of LibreOffice 5? I don't do magazines or newspapers (since 1997) so now LibreOffice Writer for PDFs. Epub by LO Writer, extra Save As docx, Calibre to epub. Styles go 1:1 to HTML & CSS. Only have to manually edit some CSS values on images.
