AppleWorks - Use EazyDraw Retro:

EazyDraw Retro is used to access AppleWorks Drawings. EazyDraw Retro runs on Lion, but Lion is not needed, it will run OS X version 10.4 and newer.

Snow Leopard (OS X version 10.6):

Use "legacy" version 5.0.8 on Snow Leopard. In order to stay abreast of the rapid advances in OS X technology, the current main release of EazyDraw (5.3.1) dropped support for Snow Leopard (OS X version 10.6). Legacy version 5.0.8 is still maintained and at this writing has all the same core features as the primary version. The new enhanced input and output technology is not present in the Snow Leopard version. It is planned that this branch of EazyDraw will continue to get updates, bug fixes, and enhancements when practical. We understand that there can be several reasons why users will be running Snow Leopard for quite sometime. No need for a separate purchase, all branches of EazyDraw 5 use the same license code. Your single user license will allow you to use any mix of the different versions on the computers that you use.

Only One Purchase Needed:

A version 5 license code is use with EazyDraw Retro. Use the same license with both EazyDraw 5.0.x and 5.3.x.

The App Store versions of EazyDraw do NOT support AppleWorks import.

EazyDraw Retro and EazyDraw Mountain Lion-5 can co-exist:

You can have both versions on one computer, they do not interfere with each other. Some care will be needed to launch the correct version. Use Get Info with the OS X Finder to set default version.
