Aldus PageMaker was professional page layout software, or professional publishing program or more commonly a Desktop Publishing (DTP) software developed by Aldus Corporation for Apple Macintosh. The first version of PageMaker was released in July 1985. It was the first ever commercial desktop publishing application.
PageMaker version 4.2 was released in 1992 and introduced such features as story editor, plug-in system "Aldus additions", and a scripting language for automating PageMaker operations.

In 1995 Aldus Corporation was acquired by Adobe, which re-introduced PageMaker as Adobe PageMaker and later replaced by Adobe InDesign.

Aldus PageMaker 5.0 was released in January 1993. There were no major functionality changes from 4.0/4.2
