Hi,
I haven't seen this mentioned before, but I don't have digests to review.
In general the interface looks promising and seems to work well. However, everything is squished. For example, the red "X" cancel button on the toolbar sits on top of the title text. There's no margin around the graphics which identify the text boxes in the edit palette. The progress bar for printing is incredibly small, and so on.
Also I'll repeat an earlier observation that the font selection list in the edit palette doesn't work properly. When you type a letter with the list open, it should scroll to the first font that begins with that letter and remain open. This is the behavior in the older versions and also the behavior in other programs. When you do this in the Beta, PageStream selects the first font it finds that begins with the letter and closes the scrolling list.
Still looking at the font problem to see if fonts previously installed with Adobe Type Manager are being treated differently from fonts installed with the Windows type installer.
