User friendly desktop publishing software for Macs

The Print Shop is a popular and powerful desktop publishing software for Macs by developers Broderbund.

It allows you to create professional-looking cards, calendars, DVD cases and more. It also includes Photo Workshop, a powerful yet simple to use built-in editor to fix and enhance your photos, and a large collection of photos, graphics and creative fonts. The Print Shop is also integrated with iLife meaning you can import track names and times from iTunes to create album covers, playlists and track listings.

Alternatively, you can import your family photos from iPhoto to create greeting cards, add address labels with Address Book and create poster-size calendars with fixtures imported from iCal. Whatever you're making The Print Shop is packed with templates that do the hard work for you including nostalgia, sport and family themes. Version 2 has been upgraded to include many more templates and clipart images plus greater integration with iLife.

The Print Shop has suffered quite a few incompatibility problems with the latest versions of Windows but Mac users generally haven't been as badly affected. However, The Print Shop is no Photoshop or Quark - it is however more user friendly and more tailored to domestic needs.

The Print Shop is a relatively user friendly desktop publishing software for Macs.

THIS TAKES YOU TO A PAID APP PURCHASE IN SPANISH. When you try to download, it takes you to the app store where its 44.99 (pounds!! which is like almost 100 in cad$) and its all in spanish! also, it says print shop 2. So i'm guessing this doesn't exist anymore. Should be removed from here.Cannot download unless paying for it!! Cons: EVERYTHING IS MISSING! THIS "FREE" APP DOESNT EXIST
