You may know Serif as an accounting prog, a very good one at that both the VAT and IR accept it, but they do a lot of other stuff as well.
As an intro to their range you can get a suite of 5 for free!!!!
PagePlus 7 for DTP better than Publisher
PhotoPlus 6.5 for manipulation etc similar to Elements or PSP
DrawPlus 5 for graphics including web animation
WebPlus 6 for WYSIWYG web design
PhotoManager for organising your images.
Not bad for free, I'm getting them to put on my g-daughters laptops.
Phone 0800 376 5472 if you are interested, there's £0.82 for postage.

For once no, OK they send you a pile of sales bumff and order forms but you don't have to order. They did a DTP set a couple of years ago which I got for one of my daughters who is still using it to prepare leaflets etc at work.:icon_nice:icon_nice

Good deal Tony. Serif often do deals like this. Like you said, the only catch is the junk mail and phone calls afterwards. It's also a good way to see if you want/need to upgrade to their latest versions.

I can't speak about webplus, but I have used the other packages in the past and all of them are very good, especially Pageplus.
