Acrobat, InDesign, Illustrator, Pagemaker, Photoshop, and more. At SEF, Inc we utilize the entire Adobe Creative Suite and love the ease of use and the way the programs integrate together to get our work done quickly and efficiently. It is also great to be able to utilize plug-ins to do such things as variable data printing.

AppleWorks, iMovie, iTunes, and Final Cut Pro

CorelDRAW, PhotoPaint, KPT Photoshop Plugins, and Ventura. A great place to get CorelDraw is ebay. The program has many great design capabilities and is being actively developed by Corel. For design on the cheaper side it is hard to beat CorelDraw. It has the ability to output print ready PDF files and even has the ability to create barcodes. CorelDraw is able to creat anything from business forms to full color brochures.

Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Publisher, and more

QuarkXPress, QuarkWrapture, and XTensions. Quark still has a large following but has had much of their market share eroded by the success of Indesign from Adobe®.
I for one was upset that Quark 7 would not run on Microsofts Windows 7, leaving me with a program that was useless without an upgrade to a newer version for what seemed like too short a life span.
