What's New in Version 1.3.0
An integrated shape editor has been added to allow shapes to be created and edited within the WordSearch 4 application.
A short tutorial on the shape editor is available from the help menu and from within the help file.
A new shape management window has been added to allow the adding, deleting and activating of shapes.
The web site now has a page where users can exchange shapes that they have created.
The application now uses Auto Save and Versions in OS X Lion. This feature applies to the wordsearch files only and not to the shape files. Auto Save and Versions may, if you wish, be turned off in the preferences.
For more information on Auto Save and Versions go to this link http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4753
Drag and drop between windows now works correctly in OS 10.6
The help file is now the correct help file. Previous versions of the program had an unfinished help file that had, somehow, got included in error.
Fixed many other minor bugs and interface problems.

Why have a lite when you have to buy it
The could be a good app, but the feature of use is missing. You can only print out 8 x 8, which they clearly state, but what is the purpose. They should have made it print a limited number of full feature wordsearch puzzles so we can really see what it can do. This is not worth the time to download the free version.
