Is this software pretty easy to use? My old version is from 1997. Don't need anything fancy! Just making flyers or posters.

I love this software. In fact, I depend on it so much that I have 3 of the same one just in case..........and yes, it is pretty easy to use. I used it on my old PC which was Vista and it worked great; I use it on Windows 7 and it works great on that. You just have to monkey around with it a little and get to know your way around, but the project selection makes things quite simple. I think you will like it.

It is compatible and does work with previous versions of printshop. The problem I found with it so far is that it does not allow you to make tables and does not permit you to acquire scanned photos directly. Both were part of previous versions. I find transition from earlier Printshops is much more complicated. The format has changed and has more moving parts which is time consuming. I kept version 23 on my other computer which is much easier to use. I am trying to return 3.5 but have had no response after filling out return form. Bottom line I am not happy with 3.5.

My box states Version 23. All I know is it works well with my Windows 7 and Windows 8 laptops. I've used it for a few months and have had no issues with it. I have always likes using all the older versions of Print Shop over the years so that's why I bought the newest one because I upgraded my computers.

To be quite honest, I haven't used WordPerfect very much, so I couldn't say. But I do know it has very respectable formatting abilities, nice assortment of fonts and sizes, plus a lot more other amenities I just didn't expect from a free program; there are spreadsheets, point-whatchamacallit templates, even some for making up flyers, business cards and other things. There's links to go to to get even more templates, but though they looked very interesting, I didn't have much need for them, a lot of them had to do with other languages and those techno-functions that are far beyond my ken. It's quite easy to use, also. I like Scrivener, once I got used to it, but you practically need an engineering degree to figure out how to use the damn thing. Hope that helps!

Linda...according to the pictures, the software is good for PC and Mac and the unit is easy to use. We copied over 100 slides to my computer and the quality was amazing for as old as they were.

Used PrintShop years ago on a Mac, and it was fine for what I wanted at the time. Tried Nova Publisher Pro 3 years ago, and I never needed to read the instructions (unless it was for a special function, to make sure I did it correctly) - it's very easy to use right out of the box. This is a great product for the cost - every bit as good as MS Publisher and others but for a fraction of the cost. You won't regret it.

The word processor, spreadsheet, and presentation programs are the same. There are other added features, but unless you are doing some database stuff or epublishing, the standard should do just fine.

Yes. The program Jigsaw Galore gold is very easy to use. Windows 7 compatible.

Hi Donna, Sorry about the last answer. I have talk to Fijitsu Rep. He said you need Adobe Software. Get a free down load. Thanks Anthony J Argy Sr Full Color Copier Inc.

Wordpad and notepad are about it. They provide basic functionality but definitely nothing fancy. I use Apache Open Office (free)!

I've been using PhotoSuite 4 since it came out ... was it 18 years ago? Used it for 8 years in a professional photography plant to doctor bad photos. It's fast and easy. I only used Adobe for fine sharpening and more accurate resolution changes and cropping. And I just used it on my new Windows Home Premium 7 Acer netbook. Works just like it always did. Next I'll try it on Windows 8.1.

Hi, Anybody have trouble with the software aspect? I am running into trouble with the driver intalls, in particular the DLLs, and the worst is driver CNMBR333, even with the updated drivers. I already email tech suppport and they responded quickly but their solution didnt work. I wont hear again till tommorow but since so many others here are enthused about what is definitley a quality printer that even make standard paper printouts seem like photo paper, I though maybe someone with a bit more experience with install issues might be able to help.Thank You Regardless

You don't need software, just whatever word processing program that allows you to make labels such as Avery, etc. I use Open Office because it's free and works the same as Microsoft Word.

Easiest is to use a preset template and use clipart that comes with program. I was able to make a blank card and import clipart of my own from another source. I didn't try different formats, so cannot yet give complete answer. Sizing import is not obvious like illustrator or even Word. PrintMaster is at it's best when used to make easy card, flyer, calendar or page with your own photos.

Yes, but NOTHING is easy. It's a horrible program. The version before this was perfect. With this, I'm constantly frustrated and everything takes me so much longer. Don't buy it!

Hello, I have only used a few times but you don't need other software. Go on line to buzz tools. Com I think that's right, and they have some trial periods for their various packages. Hope this helps Janet

I haven't done these, but I can say that the instructions for fliers and mailings look very simple, intuitive--unlike their publishing a book instructions. You import your graphics and they have many formats for fliers, in particular. I happened across them while stumbling through. I have the book and its not nearly as helpful as the tutorials- check them out and you will see.
