Oh nonsense! you were asked time and again regarding this issue with
Turboprint & never responded.

I've always had *excellent* support and responses from Turboprint
whenever I've asked (including license updates) and highly recommend them.

Try it again (it's free for 30 days) and tell us what the results are.

For the OP:

Again, it's free for 30days; download & if it works spend the Eu to
purchase.
