Get Serif PagePlus X5 desktop publishing for $15
20.05.12
Well, I'm bummed. I paid $75 for this product just a few months ago. But I needed it at the time, and it was worth it.
That makes this deal all the more un-pass-up-able.
Today only, PricePlunge has Serif PagePlus X5 for $14.99 , plus $1.99 for shipping. Yep, it's an actual boxed copy, not a download. How quaint!
Update: Sold out! Rats. That went really fast. The closest I can find elsewhere is $42.99 shipped at Amazon . Viewed in a vacuum, that's still a great deal. (But not as great as $15, I admit.)
You remember desktop publishing software, right? Back in the old days, you had your pick of a dozen or more programs (Publisher, PageMaker, etc.), but now the field is practically empty.
Sure, you can still buy Adobe InDesign or QuarkXPress for a small fortune (they run $699 and $799, respectively), but what if you just want a simple program for creating newsletters, brochures, flyers, and the like?
PagePlus X5 isn't the latest version of the program (Serif launched version X6 back in December), but make no mistake: it's plenty powerful. It offers robust page-layout tools for everything from calendars and greetings cards to books and magazines. I've used it to design both simple flyers and 24-page newsletters.
