Abstract :
The impact of publishing systems and technologies (PST) on publishing is discussed. Three questions are addressed: (1) why documentation is important; (2) why PST is important; and (3) how one can choose the PST that is best for one´s needs. The third question is answered in an analytical framework of the three dimensions of impact, complexity, and resources, all subordinated to the concept of appropriate quality
