>> BTW, Deron, PGS 5.0.5.8 had an unusual bug yesterday: I saved a document as PDF. And only 152 bytes (or was it bits?) was saved. I tried many possibilities, but no avail, always the same amount in bytes/bits. I closed 5.0.5.8 and opened 5.0.5.7 at the same system (not rebooting Windows 10), and this PGS saved the full PDF.

Yes, I would pay for an upgrade too. I use PageStream in Windows and under Wine in Linux (works more smoothly in Windows but is usable in Wine).

I am also pleased to hear that Deron is still alive and kicking.

I have been using PageSTream for years, since the Atari, now on Windows 7 Ultimate and anticipating "upgrading" to Windows 10.

I second all the above except that I cannot say I have noticed problems with the windows or a loss of formatting.

An annoying feature of this Yahoo system is the way everything is always copied.
I have tried to get rid of nearly everything no longer relevant.
