5.0

What do you like best? Ease of use and broadness of applicability. What do you dislike? Its ease of use and broad applicability trumps any minor issues. I am not aware of any significant issues encountered. I evidently need to keep typing, because I'm not able to finish this task otherwise. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Being able to fill in PDF's without using more expensive solutions. Also used to authenticate signatures in various ventures. Comes in extremely handy actually.
