Can I Alter PDF Documents?

Everybody knows that PDF documents are the most used document format across multiple industries. Most governmental agencies and business departments have their own customized electronic document type. Thus, we aim to provide a solution that will cover all our needs. Thanks to the fact that digital documents are easier to use and store, making the switch to paperless also means never having to print out numerous copies. Our editor features various tools that make the process of editing faster and more productive. Try these online tools and enjoy them all! You can upload an unlimited number of documents and alter PDF online.

Altering a PDF File

If you want to make your template editable or fillable, follow the steps below:

Upload your document sample using the drag and drop box or upload a document from your cloud storage. You can also provide a link to the document. Additionally, a user can find their document using the search field.

Image

If the sample is already on a website, go to “My docs” or the folder that contains the necessary sample and click on it. Your template will be opened in the editor by default.

Image

If you are completing the form, fill in the fields with the textual and numeric information. Be careful while typing in order to provide correct data. Note, that some fields require numerals only.

Image

In case you need to add textual fields manually, uses the text tool on your page. Place text where you want. This function has additional features that change the size and type of font. You may make the text bold, italic, underlined or change its color.

Image

You can add various fields except for textual: number, date, dropdown, checkbox, photo or initials. This option is available on the right side of the page.

Image

Once the text has been provided it can be highlighted or blacked out. Highlight the points you want to concentrate attention on. Click on the “Highlight” button and move your cursor across the line you want to highlight.

Image

Some users may worry about personal data they include in their template. The blackout tool will help you with that. Select it from the upper tools panel and hide information using the black line. Sign the blank with the help of the signature wizard. You may add an existing signature or create a new one. Type your full name or draw a signature with the touchpad. Additionally, you may send a link to your mobile phone and draw it on the screen of the device with your finger. Also, a photo of your initials written on paper can be uploaded. Save changes in the current format or one of the other file formats. You can save your sample as an Excel spreadsheet, Word document or PowerPoint presentation. Finally, the template can be sent to be signed or shared with the help of a link. You can also attach it to an email or sent via USPS. The document can be printed or downloaded on your computer as well.

One more way to alter PDF document is via the merge function. You may include up to five PDF files in one document merge. Also, you may reorder pages to place them in your preferred order.

An advantage of our service is that PDF documents can be edited on the go. There is no need to install desktop software because all the tools are accessible in the cloud. The online-service is user-friendly and looks good on both mac and windows. It also works well on most popular owners.

What do you like best?
I like the idea that I can edit a PDF document that is not machine fillable. I have been using this program for several years now in personal and not for profit business.
What do you dislike?
This is not the most user friendly program to use. It lacks a search field or help section to answer questions as how to do something I do not know how to do. It would be nice to be able to save a document as you are finishing instead of having to go back and rename a document. This is the case when I am using a master form that gets updated each month. I work on my laptop and the print screen has the print button to low. I see a sliver of the print button, that if I mess around with it for a while, I can eventually click on it. I can't be the only person with this problem. It would be helpful if the print screen could open a little higher on the screen, reduce some of the preface before the print button or have the print button on the top of the form. I also get frustrated with getting an actual signature in the system. There are no clear instructions on how to do that. It took me hours and hours to get my signature as part of the program. It would be nice to be able to scan a signature into the program. I have used Adobe DC with work in the past and I find it is a superior product, but not worth the cost with the volume of paperwork I need to do. Also a typical example of issues I have with PDFiller is the instruction to take a screen shot of my log in page. I have no idea of how to do that so I attached a PDF master document I use pdfiller to complete each month.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't expect to see the most beautiful documents as far as how things line up, but it is certainly a way to complete PDF forms typed instead of hand written,
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
As I stated above I use PDF filler with forms that are not fillable. I have used them to complete tax returns when a fillable form is not available. I have used them to sign a document instead of having to print, sign and rescan the document before sending it back to the originator. I have not used it to obtain other peoples signature

I like the professional government… I like the professional government templates available but the layout of the actual site is a little tricky to understand how everything works on it.
