Bento won't print my database.

I can print labels just fine, but when I try to print the whole database (or make a PDF from the Print utility), it doesn't work. I'm guessing that the latest version of OS X is the culprit. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Bento was discontinued in 2013. My only suggestion is to set up an external HD with an OS from 2013 emulatorloo Nov 2017 #1

and boot from that if you need to use Bento.

I have a HD set up like that for a few older applications I like. I use it less and less as I am finding modern replacements.

That hadn't occurred to me. I know someone who keeps old Macs alive and may ask him to help me out, assuming he hasn't "upgraded" the OS.
