This is only my second time but I do like how easy it is to type directly on the file. Just waiting to make sure they received it on the other end. Thanks

Site could be more mobile friendly. I'm still learning but so far it has done exactly what I needed and greatly improved my ability to get the docs back I send.

So far all worked really well, the only thing that could be still improved is to have the possibility to change the font size, when filling in a document

I still like the program albeit the script and font could use some improvements
Being able to fill reports online , print and send.
The script is hard to line up , checking off boxes is also difficult.

What I personally liked about this product is the convenience.
When using such a valuable product as pdfFiller it is nearly impossible to rate it lowly.

Works well
Works well. Just wish there was a way to sign without the added date and time and logo. No one cares about the logo, they just want a signature that appears real. I still have to print, sign and scan, because of that one issue. Kind of makes it worthless to be able to fill out on line.

This is my first time dealing with PDFFILLER! There were some issues and they quickly assisted in resolving the areas in question . I would recommend them to business professionals and someone like me that has a periodic need for administrative documents.
