Out of the total pre-loaded designs, nearly 5,000 are dedicated to greeting cards only. The idea is to provide a greeting card for every conceivable occasion/reason. Each of these cards can be further customized to suit your personal requirements.

Once the personalization application is in operation, you can edit, format, shrink, merge, enlarge and rotate text/images without any restrictions.

There are a number of Graphics tools that can be used to create clearly-defined special effects. You can also use tools like Mail Merge to forward greeting cards to anyone listed in the Mac Address Book. Images can also be imported from the iPhoto.

Another aspect that makes the Print Explosion Deluxe 3.0 undemanding is the format in which every functionality has been put forth, i.e. the instructions are not your typical set of textual guides but an easy-to-understand, self-explanatory format that walks you through the entire designing process.
There is even a Tutorial that gives you an overall feel of using this software by exhaustively explaining some of the more conventional designs. These helpful resources are good enough to convert the most basic of desktop users into competent designers within hours.
Print Explosion Deluxe 3.0 has been recommended more for those who have some level of dexterity with desktop publishing softwares, but the fact is that it is equally suited to first-time users. In terms of the choice of applications, the Deluxe 3.0 has no market competition and when you consider its economical price tag, it seems like a designing offering that would be hard to resist.
