We present you Crystal Works for iPad
a new, convenient and easy to use way to create documents and fillable forms of any type and complexity from scratch, with very powerful functionality

General Idea
All existing text editors use the same approach, which can be called "typewriter" approach – first the text and everything else is just addition. We offer more functional and convenient approach, especially as for tablet. It is based on controlling each element of the document as an independent object.
We call it "object" approach for document creation.

Using it you can design and build any document or form. You can create beautiful and functional documents ,forms and templates which can be used over and over again.

Looks very promising. Could you address some of the concerns expressed by the individuals who have reviewed your app in iTunes?

Thanks for your interest in our project.
We are working hard every day to make Crystal Works one of the best app on the App Store. We listen to all feedback we get and we are fixing problems as fast, as possible. And also, it looks like one of the user kind of misunderstood what our application does, so we clarified our description after that.
