Easy to use
I have converted from our company's old way of emailing documents to print, sign, and scan back to us to digital signatures. It has made the process much easier for me and all of our new team members
I would love to be able to consolidate multiple documents into one OR send multiple documents with one email

I printed five copies of 47 pages that were pretty easy to print, collate, print from my printer overall my experience was that it is a pleasant experience.

I love the PDF Filler. The only thing I don't like is the fact that when editing the font changes from the original font on the form that I am trying to edit.
