Accountant 2015 does not work as well as 2014 and continues Intuit's practice of making the program 'fancier' and less functional. The problem that the program has in accessing files from a shared drive makes it all but useless for a networked environment. PrintMaster Platinum v8 is a simple desktop publishing package with some impressive features. You won’t get the same level of sophistication with this software as you would with some of the higher priced software in our desktop publishing software reviews, but it has a nice feature package that will let you do a diverse set of tasks. For desktop publishing from a Mac and OSX there are several options. I’m asked this question frequently publishing an article is a little easier to share. Canva www.canva.com Canva is a pretty new, but it is a browser based (chrome, safari, firefox, etc) which means it will run on anything. Plus, they have a very well designed iPad app.

BookLightning 1.7.4
BookLightning is a Mac OS X 10.3 native utility for imposing PDF filesinto booklets, either for further processing or to print directly on aduplex or non-duplex printer. Operation couldn't be simpler: just drop aPDF file on the BookLightning icon, and it will create a new PDF withthe pages of the original file arranged on sheets that are twice thesize, two up and arranged so that they will form a booklet of theoriginal size when folded in the middle. BookLightning does its job veryquickly, generating the new PDF file typically takes less than a second.
For non-duplex printers, BookLightning splits the front and back pages,allowing two-sided booklets to be printed in two passes.
To create a booklet that will be created by printing on and foldingletter size paper ( 8.5 x 11 ), set up your original document's pagesize to half that size: 5.5 x 8.5. This is exactly the size that theindividual pages will appear at in the final booklet, because two ofthem have to fit on each side of the letter size sheets. For users withISO 'A'-style paper sizes, just drop down one size from the size of thepaper you will be printing on.
