Certainly doesn't go out of it's way to tell you the cost up front.

I just started using this plugin to generate highly customized PDFs and it worked perfectly. I have some very specific needs and the plugin developers helped me quickly and solved my problems successfully. Very happy and highly recommended for advanced PDF needs. Their API service has a lot of helpful features that I would love to see implemented in this plugin when time permits. 😉
