My experience so far has been very good and I've been dazzled by the
speed of the articles' arrival. However I'm a a small outfit, have
Adobe 6 on my PC and am lucky enough to have access to a new printer.
My only complaint is time taken to print the articles and the amount of
extra paper we're using, even with the relatively few articles we
obtain. For us, the service is working well.
