Hi Esther,
I have dealt with them with their Windows products for several
years. They are low cost and do the job for the money.
Overwhelmingly at shows and demonstrations, they are spoken highly of
by teachers and such. However, I have no experience with the Mac
software yet. From the Windows experience, you are not looking at
K1000 type of features, for example. Remember that their pricing is a
fraction of Windows products, but that does mean that the richness of
the package might not meet all expectations.
Take Care

Hi John,
Your post on Premier Literacy was interesting, but you didn't give a
web site.

While a few of the products in the package looked interesting, like
PDF Magic Pro, which is supposed to turn inaccesible PDF files into
converted, accessible formats, automatically removing encryption,
and retaining full page formatting, there seems to be relatively
little detail at the web site. They do claim to offer free trials
(25 accesses) if you fill out a personal information form. Does
anyone have any experience with this company, perhaps on the Windows
side, since most of their products previously seem geared for that?
And to get around the post length limitation, I'll give a link to
their web page announcement:

Hi folks,
I'm trying this again, as the message size seemed to cause a
