This company, PDF Paw, owned by Sommo, should have zero stars. They are thieves. They have a documented history of a hidden subscription trap by which customer sign up for a $1.95 usage fee but are then billed $39.99 immediately and incur recurring charges of 39.99 per month on their credit card. Fortunately, I paid through paypal, and they quickly decided in favor of my dispute. Lisa at PDFpaw is the biggest thief and grifter. She tried to get me to drop my complaint with PayPal. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY!
