In PrintMaster Platinum 2.0, the entire card-building process is both intuitive and fun. You can create cards from scratch or alter a card template to fit your needs. After you pick a project, all your embellishment choices appear on the left-hand side of the screen as labeled icons (a general menu bar appears across the top screen as well).

Click photos, fonts and effects to arrange them on your greeting card, then when you're satisfied, just click to save your work. You can also save all your favorite elements—fonts, pictures, themes—in a favorites folder for extra-quick access.

Previous versions required users to download the art that came with the program at their leisure. Now, you’re able to put it on your computer using one of the DVDs in the box. Installing the art isn’t required though. You can put as much or as little as you want on your computer.

For instance, if you install the large library of clipart or templates, it will take awhile to find the exact image you want. On the other hand, if you’re a fan of clipart, this program will offer you with a wide array of images. In this case, the selection of images is one of the benefits that makes PrintMaster Platinum 2.0 the top greeting card program we reviewed.
