"Again - everyone prints eventually, but it has been given a 3rd world status creating problems for all users in all fields."

Indeed; witness the inability of Photoshop to print across multiple pages. That is astounding.

Yet historically, apologists attempted to deflect most complaints about Photoshop by claiming that it's a print-oriented tool. But now its print functionality stinks, and so does much of the rest of it.

Users suffer because of the entrenchment of these largely moribund Adobe apps and the relatively small size of the market for any particular artistic tool. It just doesn't pay for competent competitors to emerge, apparently. How else to explain the continued tolerance of Illustrator?
