Newest release is now available for Mac and Amiga.

The Amiga version has both a full installer and an update archive. The Mac
just has an update archive (which contains almost everything, and is
somewhere between.)

The last release for these two platforms where not the same, but I'll just
post the changes log for the Mac (which is a super set for the Amiga).

Still another platform to go...

---------------------------------------------
PageStream4 (4.1.3.3)
+ Fixed cursor down/left/right into next frame or start of frame
that would position on wrong page!
+ Fixed fault with append documents that would delete pages in open document.
+ Fixed setting of stroke in object styles.
+ Resizing groups can now be undone.
+ Right, center, and align tabs will no longer push text past the right edge
of the frame.

Windows
+ Fixed file names for files open via double clicking on the file so that
the names show the long file name, and not the 8.3 that is passed in.

Mac
+ Fixed problem printing paths to PostScript and PDFs introduced in 4.1.
+ Fixed crashing when loading or saving second document.

Filter: IllustratorEPS graphic filter (1.0d)
+ Fixed saving of paths that end in a closepath for loading into AI.

Printers: PostScript (1.0q)
+ Added support for new LScale and ContentLScale parameters for increased
precision in scaling!

PageStream4 (4.1.3.2)
+ Fixed selection of Mail Merge/Imposition in Print
+ Fixed saving of prefs past Typographic panel (it was stopping at the new
Character Set option).
+ Added CHARACTERSET command

Windows
+ Fixed code page support for windows fonts

PageStream4 (4.1.3.1)
+ Dissolved rotated groups no longer will show handles for subobjects offset.
+ Fixed problem selecting drawings that are on right hand page of a spread that
has been disolved because of turning off masterpage -> facing pages option.
+ Fixed closing of documents with revisions in them that would lead to a crash.
+ Fixed problem transforming objects across multiple pages in a joined
facing pages document.
+ Moving an object on a right hand facing page now shows the object coordinates
relative to the right hand page. Multiple select objects still show relative
to the upper left of the spread (as it must since multiple objects can be
on multiple pages of the spread!)
+ Fixed masterpage columns not reformatting on pages to properly align page
number and chapter name variables (amongst other variables.). Bug was new
in 4.1.0/4.0.10.
+ Added support for new character set features in the libraries
to support font encodings/keyboard mappings other than standard
"Roman/Latin" character sets. Any users who are using a character set
which does not support an extended characters from a mapping will still
see the unaccented version, or some other close proximity if at all
possible.
If you can test this feature, and/or know of character sets that are
important to you but unsupported please let me know. I also need to know
not only if it doesn't work, but if it does!
+ Increased accuracy of bitmap scaling from .1% to .0001%.
+ Added popup in prefs->type to choose "native" keyboard/font character set.
+ Fixed memory leak when mouse moves over a column in text mode.
+ Fixed saving of rotated text, specifically text on a curve, to PDF.
+ Fixed Transform fade to... bug for strokes that crashed on Amiga
(but was wrong on all 3 platforms)
+ Fixed setting of custom shadow fill/stroke. (4.1.3a for Amiga)
+ When resizing rotated objects, PageStream attempts to choose the mouse
form which most closely represents the direction of travel (to closest
45degree angle). As good as it gets!

Amiga
+ New Help script setting the stack size for HHV.
+ Fixed display of colors in color palette.
+ Fixed custom column widths (and gadget order).

Mac
+ Fixed printing of paths to PostScript and Save PDF. Introduced in
initial 4.1 beta. Mac release still being tested. Please provide
feedback, negative or positive.

Windows
+ You can now double click on a *.pgs file, and PageStream will load it
automatically after being launched.
+ Fixed tab order of a number of requesters.
+ Fixed part of the activation problem where other programs get
activated when you close a PageStream requester. Still does it, just
less often!
+ Fixed possible crash when printing. Not sure how often it would have
occured in real life...

BME
+ When Save As chooses another filter to save with, it now becomes the new
default filter for future saves.

Engine: Polski language engine (1.0)
+ Created with help from
"Henryk Jursz" norveg@poczta.onet.pl
"Rafal Mania" rafal@amiga.pl
+ Added Polski.Spelling file
+ First language module to require/use new codepage features

Filter: IllustratorEPS graphic filter (1.0c)
+ Fixed loading of stroke color array from Corel that are not stored in an
actual array.

Filter: ASCII text filter (1.0o)
+ Added support for extendable list of character sets. Now instead of
just Amiga, Macintosh, Windows, and MSDos, you also get any character
set defined in the character set folder which many and growing! So if you
are a Polish Amiga user, you can import text from a Polish Windows users
and all characters are preserved. Same for other character sets.

FilterRazzageStream2 document filter (1.0o)
+ Fixed loading of special case where linked frames would be empty
and unlinked.
+ Fixed white pictures by properly disabling fill for loaded pictures.

Filter: IFF ILUS (1.0r)

(and future support for other content scaling precision increases).

Filter: IFF DR2D (1.0k)

+ Minor speed ups and rewrite of export code
+ Fixed Amiga specific bug that stopped it from working at all on the Amiga.
