RE: brochures and publications
I use MS Publisher (a Bill Gates and PC product) and it should suit your
needs.

Hi folks,
My job description has expanded to include the design of flyers and
brochures,
and PowerPoint and Word just won't cut it anymore. I was able to make do
with
them when I produced one or two flyers a year. Now we want to create
monthly
newsletters and generate custom brochures for the various events we attend.
Maps, photos and drawings will be regular inclusions.
Can someone recommend a software package that doesn't have too steep of a
learning curve? I've had a small amount of experience with Corel Draw (a few
years ago) but have probably forgotten most of what I knew. Reasonable price
would be nice, too, because if my boss thinks it's too expensive I will be
stuck
with what I've got. Acquiring new software is my idea, not his.
A software suggestion along with its strengths and weaknesses would be
absolutely wonderful, as would ballpark price.
We are a PC and Bill Gates shop here, if that makes a difference in your
suggestion.
Thanks a million.
Rick
