My Review
I've been using Print Shop since version 11 came out years ago. I create posters, CD covers, brochures etc for both personal and professional use. I have updated my Print Shop versions at least every year or two....my latest purchase being PRINT SHOP 2.0. Having moved to Windows 7, I could no longer use previous versions. PRINT SHOP 2.0 is like going back in time. Features I had in Deluxe 22 do not exist in 2.0. The images in 2.0 are pathetic..not nearly as many images and very poor options. 2.0 is also a backslide when it comes to features. Many of the features I relied on are no longer available.
Would you recommend this to a friend?

If you are new to The Print Shop line, you might not miss some of the old features. But, older versions of the software are still available as well if you want to try them.- The Print Shop for Mac & Windows 23.1 & 2.0 (Buy Direct)
