Import or Access Art CD content from older versions - 1/12/2009 1:54:02 PM

I recently upgraded to Windows Vista and my beloved old and trusted Printmaster Platinum 7.0 stopped working due to compatibility. So I decided to 'upgrade' to the latest version of Printmaster. However the latest version require download of much of the Clip Art content. I'm traveling a lot and do not always have access to the Internet. Is it possible and how do I access and/or import my Art CDs from Printmaster 7 in the current version?

Hi msmithy,

Unfortunately, each version of PrintMaster is designed to access only those Art CDs which are included with each version. So, I'm afraid it is not possible to import your Art CDs from Printmaster 7 into the current version.

Well it does not happen often that the poster answers their own problem, but here it goes: It IS possible!

Here is what you need to do:
- Install new version of Printmaster with option to install all art onto the hard drive.
- Copy all files in the 'Content' directory from the older version of Printmaster CDs/DVDs into the 'Content' folder of the new Printmaster installed on the hard drive.
(i.e in the case of Printmaster Platinum 7 copy files in the 'Content' directory of the 'Install' CD, the 'Program' CD and all 7 'Art' CDs in the 'Content' directory of the install directory on the hard drive - while keeping new version files when duplicate file names exist)
- Voila - enjoy access to ALL art from the old and new version of Printmaster.
