Publishing Partner Professional 2.0, renamed to PageStream 2.0, was released for the Amiga in 1990 and Atari ST in 1991. This version added support for PostScript fonts and for the Amiga, AGFA Compugraphic Intellifont support.[4][5]

The application was entirely rewritten with a new user interface and many new features including colour separations, table of contents, index, nested chapters, Bézier curves, horizontal and vertical multi-page spreads, drop caps, hanging punctuation, Pantone colors, auto-kerning, auto-hyphenation, and ARexx scripting support.[8][9]
