Was there ever a port to the Ami of the C64 PrintShop program? Or is there some equivalent?? Real World:southern Illinois,USA Internet:jimd@slip106.termserv.siu.edu

Electronic Arts did a program called Deluxe Print, or something like that. It was designed for doing cards and small posters. I didn't think much of it. It seemed to draw its output on the screen first then dump it to the printer, so the resolution was not very good. Not up to the standard I normally expect from EA. Is that anything line PrintShop ?

Hmmm – Deluxe Print – that sounds vaguely familiar. If it "does" cards and posters, then yes – it is like C64 PrintShop, which was designed to do basically the same thing. Printing via screen dumps isn't very elegant nor controllable, but that doesn't sound too surprising. Thanks for the response – I will pass this on to my brother.

Wasn't there also a package called PrintMaster for the Amiga? —Betty

That was the closest to Printshop they ever did. I bought it because my wife was fond of C64 printshop. Tom alternate: jonest@hfsi.com I never met a man I didn't like…Will Rogers
