If Fleet Street Editor deserves extra bits and pieces, then so also does its main rival, the AMX Pagemaker. The package breaks down into utilities on the one hand and fonts and clipart on the other. Unlike Fleet Street Editor, Pagemaker wasn't originally supplied with a graphics library, and it's taken AMX a while to get one out.

The utilities are run from a main menu, and are selected with the mouse. They are: icon stripper, font converter, page copier and customiser.

The icon stripper removes the border icons from saved Pagemaker screens, so you can use them as title screens, or dump them cleanly to paper.

The font converter allows you to use the fonts from AMX Super Art by converting them to Pagemaker's mode 0 format. This includes the icon files, which make useful clipart in their own right. The combination is great for producing technical sheets with circuit diagrams in them.

The page copier is a neatly designed utility for copying pages directly from one page format disc to another - again, a function which should have been provided with the original program.

The customiser is probably the most useful utility provided. It allows you to select screen colour and position, and save the configuration to disc. You can also select a customised print dump. Unlike the original version of the printer utility, the dumps in Extra Extra aren't all the same! A Canon laser printer dump is even included in the list for the wealthy.

The clipart provided on the second disc in the pack is compressed to fit. Once expanded again, there are a lot of useful images categorised under headings such as sport, music, buildings and fancy borders. There is a good selection of cartoons, and all material is original, so it won't be immediately recognised by your readers.

28 new fonts are provided, which complement the sixteen originally included. There are plenty suitable for display as well as new 70, 80 and 90 column fonts.

All in all the package is very welcome, and should further the reputations of its authors, Alex Blok and Neil Lee, as well as that of AMX.
