Tue 9/2/03 -- The Broderbund brand of Riverdeep Inc. has released The Print Shop 20, adding new technologies and capabilities to the classic family publishing and package. The Print Shop Deluxe 20 ($50) moves beyond personalized greeting cards or home-office stationery with integrated CD and DVD burning for archiving or sharing creative projects; animated greetings that can be sent to friends and family without the expense of joining a Web site; and the ability to send projects via AOL, MSN, and other popular instant messaging services.
New ProPrint technology takes advantage of the latest printers' optimal resolution for clear photos, graphics, text, and headlines, while a Hot Shots viewer lets users access their favorite images, headlines, and logos right from the design desk. Creative Touch hand-crafted cards offer customized greeting cards with 3D graphics add-ons, ribbons, cut-outs and more.
