They gave so many warnings to get me to switch to Nitro Pro which was really annoying. I ended up switching back to the free version and am looking for a new pdf viewer/editor.

To eliminate all the font changes when scanning a legal document, ensure that the scanning software is set to recognize text as plain text or use OCR (Optical Character Recognition) settings that maintain uniform formatting.
