I have tried many PDF editors and to be honest this has the best user experience and least learning curve. I will recommend to others. The pricing is good and the fact that paypal is an option is awesome. Others only accept credit cards.

Good Good, but would be better if the cursor would line up exactly on each line with the line above. It's frustrating to have to manually line it up every time.
