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.
PDF & Document Tracking: Know Who Has Viewed Your PDF and Documents. Do you know what happens after you send a PDF file or a document? The fact is, control is often lost once a file has been sent out. There is no easy way to keep track of it and realistically, it could end up spread much further than you intended.
Can PDFs be tracked?
We have found that there is no feasible way to track PDF documents within the file with any, or even most, PDF viewers. However, if your end-goal is to track if your document was opened, who opened it, for how long each page was read and on what device, among others. Then, I would recommend you try Helping.
Can you tell if a PDF has been opened?
Yes, definitely. Using a PDF document security tool, you will not only know whether your file is being viewed, it is possible to know whether someone else outside your intended audience/recipient list has opened the PDF.
Can a Word document be traced?
Word documents can contain information in headers and footers. Additionally, you might have added a watermark to your Word document. Word documents can contain text that is formatted as hidden text. If you do not know whether your document contains hidden text, you can use the Document Inspector to search for it.
Can you track who opens a PDF?
Sales Handy doesn't just track your PDF opens, you can find much more actionable analytics of your PDF after sharing. You will get to know insights like the total no. of visits on the document, total and average time spent on a document, average percentage viewed and, whether the PDF was downloaded or not.
How can I tell who has a PDF open?
