PARIAHWARE, INC.  Why do people think all software should be free? I have to pay my bills and feed my family just like you. In reality, $15 is a small amount of money to pay if you like the app. Regardless, I was trying to help people out because when I started development on Shoo Apps, Spirited Away was PPC only. Why do you feel the need to not try the product, and instead, denigrate me, the developer?

CHRISTIAN  One of the questions that I have seen around the web regarding Doc Merge, is if it is worth the cost.  If you only have two or three documents to merge once in a while, then I would say no.  Doc Merge's audience for those merging many Word documents by hand, frequently.  For example, a business who is paying an employee for hours of their time manually merging documents.  The employer can purchase Doc Merge and have their documents merged into one document in a matter of seconds (or minutes) instead of hours.  For businesses, time is money.  I hope this helps you better understand the purpose of Doc Merge's existance.
