good experience My experience has been great. It allows me to do whatever I would need to do with a PDF and then some! I liked that you can do just about everything with the software from edited forms to filling them out or creating them. All in one solution. There really isn't much I can say I didn't like about the software. It really allows for me to do everything I would need to do with a PDF document.
