Ok, it seems that I owe Smile an apology. I've just opened PDFpenPro and all the quirky behaviour I was experiencing in my earlier post is no longer there. So to Smile, please accept my apology. I'm not sure what it was I suspect a restart.
PDFpenPro is indeed five star software.

Just bought this as MU Promo and have played around with it for a few minutes now and while it's a decent enough piece of software it's sooo full of bugs. A few examples:
1/ Customise Toolbar- you can't, tried dragging icons to the toolbar and just won't accept them.
2/Sometimes you can't drag the window to move it. It just won't move.
3/ If starting a New document and you drag to expand the window the toolbar icons also expand and contract ,accordingly.
And that's only after playing with it for a few minutes.

I have had earlier versions, and they to were buggy, it's a shame that the dev doesn't seem terribly interested in making PDFpenPro bug free... maybe I'm being a bit harsh.

Don't get me wrong, the actual 'guts' of PDFpenPro is very good , and I do recommend it but it's just all these unnecessary and incredibly annoying things that can make using it a frustrating experience and unfortunately drag it down.

Come on guy's if you're going to call something 'Pro' do it seriously and this could be five star software.

Version 5.5 crashes every time I try to save.

Quality Control is sure lacking on this program of late

There was a crash unique to saving forms with text fields on Snow Leopard introduced in PDFpenPro 5.5. It came about as a result of a change in compiler due to the transition to Lion. We're very sorry for the inconvenience. We released PDFpenPro 5.5.1 which fixes that problem and several others on September 13. Please choose "Check for Update..." from the PDFpenPro menu to update your software.

Three 1-star "reviews"? Thanks for letting us know that you are experiencing issues we should watch out for, but these should be update replies to the original comment, not individual reviews.

It appears you are gaming the review system to "punish" the developer for causing your frustration. Not cool.

I cannot change my ratings after making them and have had distinct different problems that have been severe. This one has been remedied, but one major issue not been addressed at all.

On other issues problems have been ignored. Not good indication. I contact support before commenting as well.

Re. Steve Fawley's reply to Christopher Price: I find it very annoying and frustrating that one cannot change the number of stars one gives. I hope someone will change this on MacUpdate. Sometimes one accidentally gives a rating that doesn't correspond to one's evaluation, and at other times, one would like to modify one's evaluation, sometimes radically.

Version 5.4

Opening this version TOTALLY DELETED my library!

It STILL won't properly open files edited on some PCs or files from my Tax Program that have been password protected.

I like this program, but it is very weak when dealing with spotlight searches of PDF documents so I can not use it a my primary PDF reader/editor. When spotlight finds and opens a PDF with the keyword you have entered, you have to enter the keyword again into the PDFPen search function to locate the keyword position within the document. Other PDF readers and editors including Apples standard Preview handle this with out any problems and present you with the keyword positions automatically. Does anyone here know of another PDF editor that works like Preview in this respect?

A very good tool which works great.

For me is the price a little high.

When I saw that version 5 was available I was ready to upgrade. I have version 3.5 and decided to skip version 4.
Unfortunately this one is Intel only, so I'll just keep using my old version.
It's a good application, but the last upgrade was not worth it to me, and this one will not work on my system.
