I'm a long-time user of Snapz and foound the product to be quite valuable.
However, I MUST say the current licensing scheme is VERY bad.
I routinely reload OS X on my machine (for a lot of reasons). Each time I
do, the Snapz license key is obliterated. No problem - just reload the key
from the original email message containing the key, right?
Nope. The key "expires" after only a few days and no longer unlocks Snapz.
That means when Ambrosia goes belly-up (ALL software companies eventually
close their doors), my copy of Snapz will go with them.
Until Ambrosia starts issuing permanent keys, I will look elsewhere for
software.

Actually, you would be best off with Snapz Pro X anyway, as PDF is rather a
bad format for sending over the Web. If you want to use GIF or JPEG instead
(for all of the obvious reasons), Snapz'll be better.
This statement suggests that a JPEG would always be significantly smaller
than the corresponding PDF - making the latter "a bad format for sending
over the Web". I am afraid this is not totally true.
I've just made a screen shot, PDF = 180 KB. Give it to Preview, save as JPEG
with best quality (so that I don't loose any information) -> 248 KB. (Then
if I lower the JPEG's quality I get much smaller files).
More surprising yet: I stuff both files, both of them keep the exact same
size (180 and 248).
