See your old Print Shop cards again
Birthday cards, church newsletters, garage-sale signs, banners — made in The Print Shop Deluxe (up to version 6) or The Print Shop Ensemble. Today's computers can't open them anymore. We can.

Questions
Is the preview really free? Do I have to sign up?
Yes, and no sign-up. The preview runs inside your own web browser — your file is never sent anywhere.
Why can't my computer open these files anymore?
The programs that made them stopped working on modern Windows and Mac, and newer Print Shop versions can't read the oldest files.
Where are my old files?
Look on old floppy disks, CDs, or an old computer's hard drive — often in a folder named PSDWIN, PSHOP, or My Documents. Search for the file endings listed above.
What do I get back?
A PDF for each project — full quality, with the original pictures and lettering, ready to print at home or at a print shop, or to share by email.
Do I need to install anything?
No. This page for the preview, and email for everything else.
