A fantastic addon. Previews reviews are misleading, as it appears all the issues mentioned in the past have been fixed.

Maybe it's been improved since these other reviews, but it worked great for me. I love that I can save a version of the doc with the placeholders completed straight from the add-on. I haven't used it directly from Sheets yet.
