It is expensive. You need to reduce the annual price. I also do not like the way the eraser works - it is either very sketchy or one has to save a doc and reload to erase something just done. Very slow and clunky

EASY TO USE, TRULY ALLOWS ONE TO EDIT PDFS. I WOULD LOVE TO SEE MORE FONTS AND THE ABILITY TO SET THE FONT SIZE MANUALLY, AND SMALLER THAN SIZE 8. OTHER THAN THAT, GREAT, USEFUL APP.

Use PDFfiller for my PDF editing and signing needs I use it quite often and it has made my life much easier. PDFfiller provides a lot of functionality for a low cost compared to other solutions. A few features were missing when I first started using it but they have added functionality and it's much better now.

What do you like best? Easy to use and updates my pdfs in minutes. Great for filling out forms and digitally signing documents in a remote working environment. What do you dislike? While there are tools to keep text boxes aligned, it could be a bit stronger when filling out forms. What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you? PdfFiller is a great tools for remote working. It solves issues with filling out forms, signed documents and much more when an employee does not have access to a printer or scanner.
