Springboard Publisher seems to have only one problem. It doesn't exist yet. At last report they are hoping to release it by Christmas. Excuse my sarcasm but this vaporware thing is getting a bit out of hand. The new approach seems to be (1) Come up with an idea (2) Advertise it (3) If you sell enough copies hire some programmers and write it. On a more positive note, I ordered PRINTRIX on monday and just received it. I haven't had time to really try it out yet but so far it seems like a class act. I talked to one of their people by phone before buying it and they seem like a really nice business. I'll post my impressions of PRINTIX after trying it for a few days. By the way, a friend of mine bought FONTWORKS when it first came out. It worke d so poorly that she filed it away. However, she just received the upgraded version and says it it great.
