I purchased PrintShop 23.1 Deluxe 3 months ago. I am well acquainted with Print Shop,as I have used it for 20 years. In this current version I can only find 120 fonts as I make my projects. I have counted them several times and I know there should be around 600. What do you suggest?

As indicated in the above link, you should see all your fonts in these two locations:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Broderbund\Core Fonts
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Broderbund\Core Fonts (Win7)
C:\Windows\Fonts

Check there to see how many True Type fonts you have. Those should be available in Print Shop.

I was directed to check Program Files\common files\Broderbund (Broderbund is not there), so no fonts
The next location to check was Program Files (x86)\common files\Broderbund\core fonts (win7) although it did not say Win7, there are hundreds and hundreds of fonts there--many more than the 120 I have available when I go into Print Shop and work with Headlines or text boxes.
So where do I go from here?

I can think of no reason those Broderbund Core Fonts are not available to you since they have been installed. Can you identify ONE of them that won't show up in your program?

Double-click a file in the Core Fonts folder. The name of the font is at the top of the file that opens. Open your Print Shop program. Start a project and add a text box. Find the font in the drop down box. If it is not there, write down the name of the font. Find a couple more.

Now that you can specify fonts that should show up, but don't, you can submit a tech support ticket and explain that fonts in the Core Fonts folder aren't showing up in the program and you can give specific examples.

BTW ... C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Broderbund\Core Fonts (Win7)
was to help you find your fonts if you have Win7. The link to "How to access fonts in Broderbund & Windows programs" was written prior to Win7, so the path at that time was C:\Program Files\Common Files\Broderbund\Core Fonts.

Any font which is found in Program Files (x86)\common files\Broderbund\core fonts should be selectable from within any Print Shop 23.1 or earlier version while working with either Headlines or text boxes. My Core Fonts folder on Win7 contains 1656 font files.
