I complete 1099Misc for my office annually. I just discovered your site which is handy as far as anticipated amending and last minute entries. I am having trouble with the How To's of IRS submitting and multiple entries.

An absolute lifesaver for form completion on the fly! PDFfiller is making it much easier for our staff to complete and customize forms that we use for client requests on a regular basis. Having a cloud/web-based solution for this makes things even more convenient! Easy to learn, intuitive, variety of fonts available No option for custom color matching within PDF file being edited

Very Helpful Product This product has been very helpful when a document only comes in PDF Form and I need to fill it out on my computer. The layout is a bit confusing and the website is not easy to use. Sometimes the text of documents gets squished together.

What do you like best? Ability to quickly and easily edit PDF's What do you dislike? Sometimes it's difficult to undo changes made. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? I work in real estate and I often need to fill in PDF's with information for my clients. Being able to do in a web based platform makes it easy to do on any computer.

I mislead them on my intentions for the service level that I required. Once I brought it to their attention, I answered 3 questions; and the matter was immediately resolved. Outstanding customer service comms. !!!
