ecame aware of PDFFiller in March 2018 and learning how to use. Would like to attend the Webinar ASAP. I cannot open a document because you asked for a pin code sent to me by email. I have not received any pan please re-sand pin code.

What do you like best?
The signature input capabilities are a huge improvement on what is offered by Adobe products
What do you dislike?
It's a bit clunky at the moment, the interface could use more contrast
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
I can execute and share documents quickly and easily; no more waiting for in-person signatures and far exceeds the tools offered by competitors (e.g., Adobe, DocuSign)

What do you like best?
It works. Easy to use platform. I've subscribed for several years and they continue to make improvements. I tried docusign and this was just as good.
What do you dislike?
I don't like that it won't link up with business accounts on OneDrive so I can't store my files on OneDrive. Really would be nice to have them fix that! Also for some weird reason, the system only can connect with personal accounts. Sometimes, it's not easy to find my documents. Finally, the plug-in for Chrome doesn't always work well. Usually, it's just better to go into the app itself.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Compare the functionality you need to what it offers. I suspect you'll find it's sufficient.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Send out paperwork for signatures and fill out paperwork online instead of printing, signing, and scanning it.

So convenient and easy! I love it. I use a lot of State and local court forms that you cannot save from their websites. With PDFiller I can fill them in and save them for future use. It seems to do everything I need it for. My favorite thing about this software is that it is so easy to fill in ANY document I may need. Maybe there could be an easier way to print right from your document, without hitting save first. (maybe you already can I just don't know how to do it)

A great move for my professional career, being able to fill out and sign forms digitally as a self-employed musician and house painter who has to do all the clerical work themselves is a huge advantage. Thank you for this great service.

Simple and excellent The user interface is simple and it allows you to edit your document and fill it in with ease. The ability of the form to make use of pictures and or typed and written information is amazing. I enjoyed using this

Good Product, Great Service I tried the product but ended up using adobe for no other reason than it was paid for by a client. I forgot to cancel my subscription and was charged. The customer service team resolved the issue immediately without any issues A good product backed up by excellent customer experience! Where else do you get that!

I like the service and have been using for awhile! I like the service and have been using for awhile. Their customer care team was really responsive through instant chat. Couldn't get a phone number for their customer service however I believe the chat service is all you need to get assistance! Kara was the representative I spoke with and she immediately understood my situation and helped me get the problems addressed with step by step processes and links. At the end she even saved me some money with the steps we took to save my old account! Definitely recommend their service and also contacting them with any question!

The purpose of highlighting is to draw attention to important information in a text. Effective highlighting is effective because it first asks the reader to pick out the important parts, and then gives an effective way to review that information later.
Underline important terms. Circle definitions and meanings. Write keywords and definitions in the margin. Signal where important information can be found with keywords or symbols in the margin.
Highlight the text that you need to annotate in Word by clicking and dragging to select a word or series of words. In Word 2003, click the Insert menu and choose “Comment.” In Word 2007 or 2010, click “New Comment” in the Comments section of the Review tab. Type out your comment and press the ESC key to close it.
Click the Review tab from the Ribbon (toolbar) at the top of the screen. Select the text you wish to comment or place the text cursor where you want the comment to appear. Click the New Comment button from the toolbar. Type your comment in the comment bubble that appears.
To use inking in Word 2016, go to the Review tab and click on the Start inking icon. When you do that, Word will display a Pens tab, similar to the one shown in the previous figure. You can use this tab to choose ink color, pen thickness, etc. Inking is a little more straightforward in Word Mobile.
Annotations are comments, notes, explanations, or other types of external remarks that can be attached to a Web document or to a selected part of a document. As they are external, it is possible to annotate any Web document independently, without needing to edit the document itself.
