I have used SWP for quite some time - only had problems in the beginning with files getting too large and too slow while being processed. But they responded fast and rather soon that problem was fixed. I think for mere publishing needs (that maybe are not too professional - I am in the writing business and occasionally need to work on folders to sell property) it does an easier and better job than pages - especially working with the two layers (a third one might be handy). Allong with all the graphics ect. it did a rather satisfying job for me. I do admit, that I had no experience with text flows etc. since for that matter I use word - but a 12 page folder to sell a house (with photos, graphics, maps looks very professionall.

Why are Swift PDF's so humungous? I've taken these PDF's (supplied by customers), imported into InDesign, then re-exported to PDF and the files shrink tremendously, some by as much as 90%.

If you have iWork 06 (with Pages 2) you don't need this, so save your money. Pages easily handles long documents. I've done 200+-page book layouts without any problems, but Swift Publisher can't handle them. Likewise with newsletter projects (more like magazines) involving up to 40+ pages.

For small layout projects like brochures that don't require more than two pages, Swift Publisher might be a good alternative.
