You will need to contact the developer for the latest news on, whether or not, they have a 64-bit version that is compatible with your macOS version. Update: Looks like D.J. Johnson provided you with latest info.

Broderbund's PrintShop 4 was incompatible with Catalina, and eventually, they came out with a 64-bit PrintShop 5 for macOS that (and you will need to check this with Broderbund) should be compatible with macOS Catalina and Big Sur. It is likely a paid upgrade from PrintShop 4 and there have been posts in the support communities by those that are *really* disappointed in the version 5 product. Ripped off may be an understatement, and it might be time to start over in a product like Swift Publisher 5 in the Mac App Store (free trial here).

Yes, there is but it’s not an upgrade. You have to buy the new version at retail price. Click the link provided by D.I.Johnson. The price is $50.


But I have to warn you that this new version, while it does run on Catalina and Big Sur, is a filthy Windows port. The menu doesn’t even have a Quit option. You have to ‘exit’ the app like it was a Windows app.
