I am excited about the ability to download documents to be converted into fill-in forms. PDF Filler works very well and I have already converted various types of documents into fill-ins, which helped me to create more professional presentations.

Ease of filling the forms. There is one change if you can make will be great... in date of birth column, once you click on it, you have to put the MM/DD/YYYY. If you can allow to override that and just put the year, that will be of help. In my case where my father was born in 1920 and his date of MM/DD is not known, I'm forced to fill it with incorrect information.
