This site is truly amazing. I am a 66 years old Vietnam Veteran and Retired U.S, Marine. Currently filing for PTSD and was able to fill out the VA form exceptionally easy. I purchased a 1 year subscription, in that I felt it would be worth it in the future. I wish this site had a method of informing others about the services. I searched the web and stumbled across this site. Further, I initially had questions and was able to speak to a live person. His attitude and willingness to help, sold me and I purchased the services. Once again, Thanks. Doug U.S. Marine Corps, Retired.

Customer focused with good features
I find Pdffiller to be one of the better online services of its type. As well as having many features in a fairly easy to use interface, their support is responsive and very customer focused. They offer a full feature short trial (requires credit card details, which some people may find off putting). It's straightforward to cancel. If you're looking to pay for an ongoing service, I recommend pdffiller.

For pdfFiller’s FAQs
Below is a list of the most common customer questions. If you can’t find an answer to your question, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.
Signatures necessarily do not have to spell your full name. If the document or situation asks for your full name as a signature then you will have to put your full name as your signature.
Can your signature be your first name?
A signature usually contains either a first name and a surname, or initials and a surname, or, less frequently a first name and initials. Your first name represents. Signature is, the less assertive you are as a person, and the more you tend to avoid conflict. Angle Most signatures.
Does your signature have to be your first and last name?
Official answer: yes, you can be made to sign your full and complete name. Unofficial answer: only if it's legible. Technically, your signature is whatever you say it is, provided it can be considered unique.
Can my signature be my initials?
Yes, your signature can be your initials. Just make sure that your signature matches what is on your driver's license and any other legal documents to avoid any problems with a bank, etc. You may want to update these if you do change your signature.
Does your signature have to be cursive?
Traditionally, signatures are in cursive, but it can be argued that it's not a requirement. This means that with a wet signature (i.e. a signature that is written rather than electronically typed), a person could potentially use their printed (non-cursive) name or even a symbol like a happy face as a valid signature.
Can anything be your signature?
Usually, a signature is simply someone's name written in a stylized fashion. However, that is not really necessary. The signature can be made by anything that marks the paper. Pencil is not favored because it can smudge and be erased, but a signature made with a pencil is equally valid as a signature in pen.
Can your signature be your nickname?
Signatures necessarily do not have to spell your full name. Signatures are a mark affixed by a person on a document to show his consent or dissent from the writing of the same, provided he puts his hand up and owns that this is his mark.
