Is Master Landscape considered an upgrade
to the Punch! program I currently use?
Master Landscape is a standalone product that shares many
of the functions of most other Punch! software products with additional new features including PhotoView™ 3D photo
imaging and PlantFinder™, an expanded plant database. While the feature set of Master Landscape is not completely
landscape-specific, the program is oriented to users interested in developing a more robust landscape design. In
contrast, programs such as Punch! Professional Home Design contain an impressive landscape plant library however,
the program is oriented more towards home design and building details such as plumbing, electrical and so on.
Will Master Landscape work with files I've created in other Punch! programs?
Yes, but with the limitation that after editing your file
in Master Landscape, you will not be able to reopen that file in Punch! programs other than Master Landscape. You
will, however, be able to open Master Landscape files in Platinum. For current Punch! users, consider Master Landscape
as a means of embellishing an existing design with the additional features of the program however, those features
are not transferable back to other Punch! programs once the file is saved as a Master Landscape file. It is suggested
that a user make a copy of a file to be edited in Master Landscape so that the original file can continue to be
opened in the parent Punch! program it was created in, if desired.
How can I benefit
from using Master Landscape?
You can take your existing designs and embellish them without
starting from scratch. The breakthrough features of Master Landscape are available to any Punch! file without any
type of conversion or redrawing required, all you need to do is open it.
Are Master Landscape files fully compatible with the new Professional Home Design-Platinum product?
Yes. Pro Platinum integrates all the features of Master
Landscape therefore files created in Master are fully compatible. In addition, Platinum contains many new additional
features and enhancements not found in Master which expand home design capabilities and customization.
Do you offer a Demo Program or a downloadable version of your
software?
Currently we do not offer a demo of any Punch! Software program. We put
a large amount of information on our product boxes and here on the Punch! Software website to compensate for this.
Of course, the best demo is the product itself, since it comes with a 90-Day Money-Back Guarantee.
We do not offer downloadable software at this time. When ordering from
our web site, your order will be shipped via the carrier indicated on your order form.
