Cons

“Export and Print features are a little rough and importing sections has limitations that are not fully explained, including features that do not work unless the file is "named correctly" but this is not explained.”

Stacy H.

Architect

“The program seems to lag in making paragraph selections, especially as you select paragraphs rapidly without stopping to make edits.”

Russell J.

Architect

“The interface can sometimes be difficult when trying to edit text and formatting paragraphs for clean reading.”
