I love Printmaster, but this version does not open my old projects and is totally revamped!! Big learning curves, but I am slowly mastering it.

I have been using print master for many years starting with PM 12. I was “forced” to buy the latest version because my others not compatible with new computer. It’s the most frustrating thing ever!! The list of problems goes on and on. I used my other versions 2-3 times a week. I can barely bring myself to open this one!!

The folks at PrintMaster make a simple, quick to use photo layout tool. It's just what we need to lay out that one page Halloween Party invitation, graduation announcement, or basic birthday card. Easy to use and quick. Out of the box we had an issue with connecting to the massive online graphics library, but when we called they had it addressed in minutes. Happy Customers.

I haven't had it long enough to really try it out. I did try to make a church calendar with it and find that it is hard to personalize it to my liking. Maybe after I get more used to it, it will be easier. I haven't tried to make a greeting card yet, so I don't know how that will go.

Took me some time to figure out how to move things around, especially recovering things that I had scanned or saved. The first one bought a few years back was much easier to use. Getting used to it now, but it took a while.

This product is OK, but not user friendly. I still haven't found how to print only one label. I would not recommend this to anyone and am searching for a better product.

Fair, it touches on some of most areas, lacks a lot of templates and paper choices. When using Avery round stickers, shows square box to work in. Difficult to get everything positioned when using “ apples and oranges “

I bought this program because my old Print Shop was out of date and no longer functional. Print Shop is a fantastic program and this new version has a lot of features the old one didn't. I couldn't be more pleased with it.
