Newsletters are just one kind of template among the thousands of projects for home, school, and office found in The Print Shop. Some of the newsletter design software features include the advanced photo editing tools built in to the software, a Logo Creator you can use to create a great newsletter nameplate, and a fair sprinkling of text and layout options such as master pages, rulers, guides, kerning, widow & orphan control, and text alignment controls. In addition to desktop printing, it exports projects to PDF. The 2.0 series is newer than the 23 series but not necessarily an upgrade. It is a very different program with the same name. Check the features carefully when comparing the various versions of The Print Shop.
