There are many desktop publishing programs available, but the very first one was Pagemaker. Adobe continued to support the program until 2001, when the company discontinued it. Users still continue to use Pagemaker, including the 6.5 program. Pagemaker 6.5 can be installed not only on Windows XP and earlier editions, but also on Windows Vista, unlike other versions of Pagemaker.

Download Pagemaker 6.5 by going to the link listed in the "Resources" section of this article. Save the "Pm652.exe" file to your desktop.

Double-click the "Pm652.exe" file on your desktop that you downloaded in Step 1. The installation box for Pagemaker 6.5 will then appear.

Select your desired language and region. Click "Next."

Click "Next" again to start the installation process.

Click "Finish" to complete the installation process. Adobe Pagemaker 6.5 has now been installed on your computer.
