We use Creator 8 (and previously Creator 7) to successfully paginate  
a large weekly shopper, a couple of weekly newspapers and a monthly  
newspaper. My interest in InDesign is for what it might be able to  
help me in putting our products online. However, so far, InDesign is  
a bit overwhelming at this time. Sure, it's powerful, but it has a  
bit of a learning curve. It's trying to be a lot of things to  
everyone. Creator is easier to get in and get the job done and move  
on to the next project.
