Customer Reviews:
great but esoteric, 2008-08-09
"So you are going to buy a Mac?"
"Yah. I love the way they work and the software tends to be intuitive."
"I agree, but my wife wants a graphics product and unless she is willing to buy Adobe, there isn't anything that does the job."
That is where I started when I bought a new iMac for my medical office. I wanted to use the machine to create some graphics and use it to run the business. I expected that the graphics wouldn't be a problem, but a medical office--hmmmm.
Surprisingly the business was no problem, but graphics? Think again.
Cash solves any problem, but I was trying to be frugal. Adobe, wow! Price, wow! What about the amateur? Well, a little research yielded LineForm. It did almost everything I needed and for the most part it was and is the application I need.
My only issue with the program is that I don't spend all my time creating computer graphics, so I don't commit to memory all the nuances of the software. Given ample time, I don't think LineForm would present any challenge in its interface design, but I get to it only occasionally. The power is definitely there, yet a "parttimer" doesn't have the flow at their fingertips. Normally I would go to the software help menu to answer a question about an operation, but LineForm is supported by only a meager 37 page pamphlet. A more robust discussion of the product's features still eludes me. I can use it for most of my simple needs, but the higher functions are a bit difficult to glean from trial and error alone.
I expect LineForm could be everything I need and more, at a very reasonable price, if only I didn't also have to learn cryptography.
