Timeworks Publisher

Timeworks Publisher

Timeworks Publisher was a desktop publishing program produced by GST Software in the United Kingdom. (In the US market, Timeworks Inc marketed the program as Publish It!.)

"Publisher" is notable as the first "affordable" DTP program. In appearance and operation, the software was a Ventura Publisher clone. However it was possible to run it on a computer without a hard disk. It originally operated using Digital Research, Inc.'s Graphical Environment Manager (GEM) Desktop, on the IBM PC and the Atari ST Later versions ran on Microsoft Windows. Later version of the GEM software contained on-the-fly-font scaling based on URW's BS format. Timeworks Inc also produced Publish It, although for the 8-bit Apple II platform and finally the Macintosh.

Deskpress was a version aimed at the business market, while Press International was a late CD based multilingual windows version.
