I assume all the commercial Print Shop disks are not too difficult to find. And long ago I also downloaded images of some very useful Atari 8-bit Print Shop disks which I had used in the 80s. Since I am located in the UK these were from the Page 6 Library (www.page6.org), which is still available as a fantastic web resource. (Thanks, Page6 maintainer, Paul Rixon I believe!). The disk images in question are listed in their XL/XE Library as The Print Shop Collection and Print Shop Collection Option Packs. They contain utilities and many graphics and can be found listed under "Printing". There are also several more Print Shop disks listed in the "Special Disks" section (DS85, 97,98,99...). It's likely you'll find Atari-related items in there. I use Atari800MacX, which certainly can save Print Shop output to pdf and allows selection of the virtual printer from a list, which you can test with Print Shop's Setup Options process. Though I can't comment on Altirra it seems very likely it will do this as well. I don't know about making an actual newsletter with Print Shop. Do the 8-bit versions have that option? Anyway, have fun! Jim

Thanks for the tip, I'll have another look!

Further to my post about TwisterOS: you can indeed install and run Atari800 as I said, but I find the sound is distorted and I have been unable fix it. However RetroPie is already installed in TwisterOS and when you run that version of Atari800 the sound is just fine.

If you have a Pi4 or Pi400 and install the excellent TwisterOS, I believe Atari800 appears in Add/Remove Software (as does Hatari), though in standard Raspbian OS only Hatari shows.

Also works on Raspberry Pi (Pixel) with Chromium browser, though the disk-specific close-x does not seem to appear.

Just tested this a bit, it's brilliant - thanks so much! Works well for me with various atrs on Safari (Catalina) and Google Chrome, on Firefox I need to zoom in the display a bit for better readability.
