Christine, with the newest one you can do a slideshow in the app. On the menu choose Present. I've never had a version which has the Map module, so I won't miss it and have no idea why I'd want it. I don't recall ever yearning for such a thing. I've no intention of ever buying a printer again, but it's handy to be able to send a fully-worked file to a print-house, so that's something I'd like, with soft-proofing. But I haven't done that for over a year. I'd be surprised if it's not in the pipeline for the all-cloud version, ditto the book stuff. I've never done a book, but I would quite like to at some point, so something else for me to be aware of. On the plus side it's easy to send stuff to Wordpress. I will look for Julianne Kost's video. Thanks both - very helpful.
