Summary: I figured out a way to save as bitmap file
Comment: I also was very disappointed in the fact that the invitations I spent a lot of time working on were not able to be saved as .jpg file, so I could print them off using a photo service rather than my printer. I did figure out a way to save the file as .bmp though. I went to my printer preferences and under "finishing" I checked the box to "show print preview". When the preview came up there was a save button I was able to click. This saved the file as a .bmp. I did test it and was able to email the invitation. When I opened the attached file the quality was not the best.
HTH those who want to e-mail the invites.

Summary: disapointed
Comment: this product was advertised to run with vista, but it wouldn't work with my printer. My money was refunded so no real harm was done.

Summary: Even if they were giving it away, I wouldn't have it!
Comment: Print Shop Zoom has soured me on anything from Broderbund for life. Not only does my copy of this piece of junk not work (the only button that is functional is "Save," but since it saves in a format that is for all practical purposes unusable, why bother?). The Copy button isn't even clickable, except for one lone instance when my mouse click seemed to depress the button. But alas, it did not copy. And no, Control C doesn't work either. I could find no way to convert the file format to one that is more versatile, and good luck trying to get any help from Broderbund! In fact when I filled out the request for tech support, what I received in reply was downright insulting. They told me to go to the help files, and to their website. As if I had not already done all of that to no avail. I wrote back telling them--again!--the problems I was having were not addressed in either place, and to please give me some technical assistance or I was going to return the software for a refund. Apparently that was fine with them, because I got zilch in the way of assistance. They did say if I had not bought it directly from them, I should request tech support from Encore Software. Well, I did, and what was their response? After the very same song and dance as Broderbund, they then tell me they cannot help me as their tech support is limited to "crashes, error messages and lockups." I guess in their opinion, a program that doesn't work right out of the box doesn't qualify as any of the above?
No more Broderbund for me! They've sunk to a new low! I'm returning the software and I've already instructed them to remove me from their mailing list.

Summary: If your buying because it is vista ready don't!!
Comment: I was told by the company to try this it would be similar to print shop for now until version 23 comes out. It is not at all like print shop!! If you are familiar with print shop and like it and want it to work with Vista I would save your money and wait for version 23 to be released!

Summary: Fantastic software for $20
Comment: I suspect the negative reviewers of this product must be expecting a $600 professional product for twenty bucks. I was able to download the software and, in a learning process, create 2 different complicated sets of business cards, a greeting card with one of my pictures included, and (this I love) put 6 different pictures on one 8-1/2 x 11 sheet, all in only two hours. And, I never needed to ask for 'help' - the software is very intuitive; very user friendly. Granted, this software is not for the professional. But, for an at-home user wanting to print a few pictures and make a few greeting cards, it's the best $20 you'll ever spent.
p.s. - I'm a Vista user - no problems here.
