Printmaster Platinum V 17.0 Old Version

Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2012

I purchased this older version for my cousin who just received a reconditioned older computer which needed XP software. She loved what I was able to do with my current version of Printmaster. So I was very delighted that you not only had the older version she needed, but that it was "brand new" !
She is learning to use Printmaster and has a smile on her face about what she is able to do ! So thank you for having that product able for me to purchase!

Works online only

Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2007

The program and most graphics used actually work as a shell and Internet connection is required for the files to run.

This should be quite clearly stated on the programs own advertising .

If the company goes bust at any time then the program is of no use and all customers will have wasted the cash paid.

It is quite clearly not advertised by, nor is it stipulated by broderbund as an Internet program only.

It's a let down greatly on the company's own part, other than this the program is perfect and well worth purchasing.

Don't try it in non-english WinXP

Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2007

I've been using a Win 98 version of this software for years and the opportunity to upgrade to the XP version was tempting.

However, it does not work at all in my portuguese XP.

After searching for the misterious error code through the manufacturer's database I was informed that it does not work in non-english Win XP.

All the previous versions worked fine in my PCs but this one was totally disappointing. Living in Brazil, I had to give up my money since the shipping costs were about the same value I would recover.

Shame on them.

Less is NOT more.

I've used Printmaster 12 platinum on DVD and liked it well enough but the disk wore out. I knew from reviews of subsequent versions that Broderbund was giving us less and less but even still I was stunned by just how much less. Where are all the projects? Even counting the online projects there just isn't much here for anyone. For kid's masks, version 12 has at least a dozen but this version gives you 2! The cards are terrible - many are just small clipart images with a white background. (At least you won't need much ink). In short, if you want to create anything decent you'll have to design it yourself. Inspired by the ONE nice-looking cut-out card, I was able to search the art work and create several nice cards that I would be pleased to send.

PrintMaster Platinum 17

Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2007

Over all I am very happy with the product. It has paid for itself in this short time by just making Happy Birthday cards. I am not totally happy with the product and I am not sure if I would buy it again. The product is well worth the money you are paying but their is a few things which I am not happy about:

1. Even though the product gives you CD's which contain Art and Project Models their is more art and projects on the Internet. To access these art and projects you need to go on the Internet which is not a problem. What is a problem is that if you want to get on this site and a lot of other people are on the site already you may not be able to get on the site. If you cannot get on the site you cannot finish your project. You will have to put it away until some other time when you can get on the site. This is frustrating and annoying. It makes you want to take the entire program and through it out the window and buy another brand.

2. The other thing I was not happy about was, I was given a coupon, in the box, for a 1 year membership to the "Million Image Club" To get into this club you have to fill out some paperwork and submit it on the Internet. After it is reviewed you are then sent a pass word, over the Internet, that allows you to go on the site. Well, I filled out all the paperwork, sent it in over the Internet, as required, but was not sent a password. Well, I tried to find some one to talk to about this but ran into a brick wall after spending a lot of time being directed from one site to another only to end up with no answer to the problem. It seems that Broderbund does not control the product but "Encore" does. You will receive almost no help at all from "Encore". The only place to get help is from a Forum which couldn't give a reasonable answer on what I should do. So, I am now not getting access to the "Million Image Club", to tell you the truth, I don't really care. When you finally can get on the site you have hundreds of images and models to choose from. You really don't need a million more.

Better Than Newer Versions of Print Master

Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2014

Great printing program. I do don't like the more recent versions. They operate differently than the version I was was previously used. I tried the newer versions, but I did not like it. Searched a while for this version that was easier to use.

Printmaster Platinum #17

Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2007

I guess it's okay. I have the original Printmaster Platinum and think its the greatest. The newer version is okay, somewhat more confusing to use and didn't have the graphics in it that I had hoped for. Guess I'll get used to it but glad I didn't remove my previous version.
