What do you like best?
Allows unlimited potential to edit virtually any document and send it electronically or conventionally. This software is a time saver/life saver.
What do you dislike?
The drawback. The Eraser tool. This tool could use some work as far as the shape of the tool. The option to be circular as well as the normal shape would be of great assistance when editing. A competitor of yours, sorry to mention uses an eraser too that is amazing and I have thought of switching simply for access to the editing qualities of that software. It allows for the one time purchase of their software and I would not pay monthly fees to maintain it either.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try out the product and use it!! See what you are missing!!
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
The editor allows our office to clean up and mark up documents received in our office such as lease agreements or forms attached to a policy which either enhance or negatively impact the clients coverage from year to year. We directly not on those forms in our proposals during renewal negotiations so the client has specifically seen and reviewed how the coverage impacts their insurance needs.

Breaching the license is software piracy using legally acquired software on more computers than the license allows. Allowing employees, or other contacts, to make unlicensed copies of software. Allowing a consultant to install software on your system when you do not have a license for it.
Copying software is an act of copyright infringement, and is subject to civil and criminal penalties. It's illegal whether you use the copied software yourself, give it away, or sell it. And aiding piracy by providing unauthorized access to software or to serial numbers used to register software can also be illegal.
Software piracy is the act of stealing software that is legally protected. This stealing includes copying, distributing, modifying or selling the software. Copyright laws were originally put into place so that the people who develop software (programmers, writers, graphic artists, etc.)
Criminal Charges On the other hand, piracy of software can be seen as a criminal act akin to stealing. In this case, the infringed can be charged with a criminal offense. In the United States, the maximum criminal penalty for copyright infringement is a fine of up to $250,000 and a jail sentence of up to five years.
It's not a personal use in fact, it's illegal to give away the copy or lend it to others for copying. The owners of copyrighted music have the right to use protection technology to allow or prevent copying.
Software piracy (officially called copyright infringement of software) refers to the illegal copying of software. It often uses the Internet.
Why Software Licensing Is Important Businesses must be savvy in the licenses they purchase to ensure firstly they are using software legally and secondly, they aren't paying for licenses that aren't being used. Finding the right license agreement can also make it easier to manage software in your company.
The license is a legally-binding agreement that determines how you may use that product. If software was sold, you would be the legal owner and could do what you wanted, e.g. install it anywhere, disassemble it, give it away or anything else that didn't contravene copyright laws.
