Oxford PAO (publication assistee par ordinateur, or desktop publishing) was Duchet Computers' localised French version of MicroDesign from Campursoft/Hogsoft. The program was identical except for the French translation.

Many French paper fanzines were produced with the program, whose short page size resulted in a peculiar idiomatic style where the bottom two lines would be printed separately as an 'aside' to the rest of the page.
