Adobe officially discontinued support for PageMaker many years ago, meaning no security updates or official patches are available [1].
The software was built for Windows 98, ME, and XP. It generally does not run natively on Windows 10; users often need to maintain a separate Windows 7 machine or use a virtual machine to keep it functional [4].
Documents are saved with the .pmd extension [8].
PageMaker was designed for a different era of computing. It provided an intuitive interface with customizable templates that made professional design accessible to both beginners and experts [3].
