 You'd better have internet access ... Dec 10, 2007

"springchickensoup"
I have Printmaster 12 and I enjoy it immensely! I wanted to upgrade since I now have the Vista Operating System. It's frustrating that you have to have internet access to be able to use many, many of the graphics. In my Printmaster 12 I physically own all the graphics -- with this version, it will give you a thumbnail pix of each of the graphics but you have to download many of them from Broderbund. I think that should be in the description of this product and I thought many others might appreciate knowing this bit of information before you jump into this one.
Extra Info. About Use With Microsoft Vista ... One of the reasons I bought this is because it's suppose to work with Microsoft Vista. My experience now is that it crashes (shuts down) as does my earlier Printmaster with the Vista. I think they have some bugs to work out before they should be claiming it works with Vista. My daughter uses it on her computer (this Printmaster 18 and the Printmaster 12) which has Microsoft XP and there is no problem. She was surprised to find mine shuts down so frequently, and I was surprised it doesn't give her any trouble!

 Printmaster 18 Somewhat Disappointing, Still Good Jan 29, 2008
By Winifred Centofante
"Matriarch"
I, too, have worked in Printmaster for years, upgrading every time a new one was available. I have enjoyed them all, especially PM 16, which fulfilled most if not all of my modest desktop publishing needs. My new computer runs on Vista, which necessitates the new PM 18, and I find it is skimpier than 16 and lacking some of the features I have counted on and used in previous versions.I can still build my page and get done most of what I need to do, but find the program subtly (or not so subtly) pared down in various areas which had produced a more fully-rounded 16. The clip art seems oddly lacking, even with the "Million Dollar Club", which I was unprepared for. Many graphics I have used regularly for years in various versions are no longer available. Furthermore, I ordered PM 18 directly from Broderbund and paid the going price plus postage. I didn't even get a box, just a cardboard mailer containing the PM disk and the one for scrapbooks (not of interest to me). Not a word, not an insert, not a picture, not nothing. I will not buy online from Broderbund again. The boxes illustrate aspects of the program which I might use if I knew what they were. I feel just a tad cheated and disappointed, and find that I crash just as often with this Vista-compatible version as I did with the PM 16. Also I have encountered stubborn printing problems with this version that I didn't have before; i.e., the program just prints on and on and on, long past the number of copies I have asked for. It would print forever if I kept feeding it paper. I have to cancel every printing manually or turn my computer off to stop it from disgorging the same print job unto eternity. I have the feeling that PM 18 was whipped together hastily to get in on Vista as it hit the market, and that newer and better versions will address some of the problems that present Vista users encounter with it.

Best Printmaster Software out there Dec 14, 2007
By eSuperBooks
"eSuperBooks.com"
Honestly, this version of Printmaster or other companies that sell this type of product this is the best one that we've used so far for our small business needs. I am not sure why other people are having difficulties with Broderbund or the internet, but this program by far is better than their competitors for clip art quality/content, text, and web capability. Besides, all the companies that sell these types of software have way more content online than what is included on the Cds. If your looking for a program like this one, I highly recommend this one rather than all of the others out there on the market. Very easy to use and my wife is all about the scrapbooking and greeting program that's also included!

 PRINTMASTER PLATINUM VER 18 Dec 11, 2007
By Thomas Bittner
you need to be connected to internet to download any clip art .There are no clip art on the DVD. You can not use this program off line. If you have dial up ,you will not be able to complete your project before you get kicked off line. Other versions of PRINTMASTER had all the clip art on CDs. If you get the free million clip art for one year ,you must sign up and get a password emailed to you, which never comes, You get no help from the company if you purchased elsewere." BUYER BEWARE "

It Isn't Working Feb 10, 2008
By Olennadahl
We purchased the Broderbund Printamster Platinum Version 18 since it was alleged to be compatible with our Vista operating system. Many hours of efort notwithstanding, it simply will not install. The help section speaks mainly to the Windows XP system and Version 17. I am NOT pleased.
