Though modern PC versions of The Print Shop come with a plethora of features, the old 5.25" floppy version (originally introduced on the Apple II) needed another entire software package to extend its simple desktop publishing capabilities. The Print Shop Companion adds letterhead and calendar capabilities, as well as graphics options like the banner editor, font editor and, perhaps the most fun of all, the "creature maker," -- a segment of the program which lets you conjure up new graphic critters from different heads, feet and torsos. When first booted, the program prompted users to insert their original Print Shop disks; Print Shop Companion would then install modifications to the original Print Shop to allow for importing user-generated fonts and banners. ~ Earl Green, All Game Guide
