And if so, do you like it? How does it compare to InDesign?

    I tried the demo, thinking it could replace corel suite (700 euro) but instead it could be a replacement for affinity publisher (75 euro). So, I uninstalled it after 3 days because i could not justify 400 euro for this

    the biggest advantage is that it can open indesign files, so it could be good as an indesign replacement, with a ROI of less than one year, if someone has a lot of indesign files could be perfect for stopping paying adobe (or just pay photoshop and not the whole suite)

      🤔 That is awfully expensive. I’m very eager to get rid of InDesign, since I’m on Linux and I have to run it on a Windows VM, which isn’t too bad, but can be kind of a pain. What features (that are important to you) do you not get if you’re only using the free version?

        without the layer palette (disabled in free), it’s very hard managing complex designs

        for advanced, i need imposing and spot colors
