About Publisher 2.2


Recommended Posts

Hi,

can we expect columns span and split?

Tables across pages, table notes and some simple math?

Please.

We will not know what is planned for 2.2 until the Beta starts, and even then we may not know everything it will contain from the start.

Of course. But that table thing looks like a pie in the sky now. Without that feature, it is impossible to use Publisher for technical / scientific articles/books layout, as they are often full of tables… and that’s a bummer.

Of course we don't know. That's the reason I'm asking.

Asking what will come in the future almost never gets an answer from Serif other than "we don't talk about what's coming in the future until it's ready". That's why I said that we will not know until the Beta starts.

A 2.2 Beta should start soon, unless they need to do a 2.1.1 release to fix some urgent issues.

It never hurts to ask. :)
