    Quark, InDesign, even Illustrator can be used for page layout. If you really need to slum it you could even use that MS program, four letters begins with a W.

    If you are on a budget there are numerous free applications that can handle this. We have compiled a list here: Free Artwork Design Software

    Have a look at Scribus for this task.

    Illustrator is good...but it would be more cost effective to get it professionally designed if you can stretch your budget.
