Latest version is 22 [Posted on 2006-09-10]
Could not find PrintShop Pro ProPublisher Deluxe version 22 on this site. Also could not find any FAQs or other assistance for this ver.22 on the Broderbund site but that may be a failure on my part.

Several crashes on my XP system, the only software I have that does crash. Hoorah XP!!! The O/S and other programs running do NOT crash, only the ProPublisher dies a horrid death.

Sure takes a loooong time for this program to load. Yawn.......

I did make a couple nice brochures but they are no better than what other similar programs create.

The lack of apparent support on the Broderbund Web site and that site's user unfriendliness adds to my doubts about the viability of this program.

Not all humanoids can afford OR obtain a high-speed connection to the Webernet (Interweb?) Having to wait then wait some more then wait a little longer then wait while waiting for graphics to crawl their way across the telephone wires is tiring though the lengthy retrieval times can be a life-altering experience; I have developed a profound sense of patienceness that borders on a Zen-like experience that has allowed me to reflect upon my inner self, reach into my psyche to resuscitate my inner childishness and allow my feminine aspect of my gruff blue collar masculinity to peek out just a wee bit (I don't make little kids cry anymore by growling at 'em). I have also retrieved copious amounts of naval lint while occupying myself during those download times.

But, life is short. I tire of the lengthy program loading time and graphic retrieval. I also dread the too-common crashes. I bought the program after observing the money-back guarentee so...off to the brick-and-mortar store I go.... to return this program. Now, off to reading the multitude of reviews scattered across the Wide Web of the World to ascertain what program will replace this sub-par Broderbund offering.

Than you, thank you very much.

Nice [Posted on 2007-01-10]
The only thing I don't like is you have to put the cd in everytime you use it. Other than that it is nice software.

ok I guess [Posted on 2007-01-28]
The only thing I don't like is the internet requirement for a lot of the extras. If you have a computer with no connection or dial-up service, then don't get this. Learning to print your work is not easy at first. And yes it also asks you to insert the CD almost every time, just imagine if all programs on your computer were like this, you wouldn't be able to multi task... Other than that, it works but it is still too expensive for what it does.

FUN THINGS TO DO ON A COMPUTER [Posted on 2007-08-13]
THIS PUBLISHING PROGRAM HAS SO MUCH IN IT!!! I'M HAVING A BALL LEARNING HOW TO DO IT ALL. IT CAME IN VERY GOOD CONDITION, ON TIME, AND THE LOOK OF BEING BOUGHT FROM A RETAIL STORE.

I'VE MADE SEVERAL LETTERHEADS FROM IT AND AM NOW WORKING ON LEARNING WEB SITE DESIGNS.

I'WASN'T DISAPPOINTED IN ANY WAY. THANK YOU

Terrible Tech Service [Posted on 2007-11-13]
I bought the Print Shop Deluxe 21 and also many other Broderbund products over the last 6 months and have several problems that needed tech support, they have little or no support for the products they sell, so my only option has been to return them. Apparently they don't care about their customers.
