I cannot get this to print correctly; all I am getting aare dots on form. 11/16 Don't remember how, but finally got it to work and enjoyed it day I bought. Recently had more PDF forms to fill in and enjoyed it again. I will be cancelling sub in az few days, but will keep it in mind should I need it in future.
