What our customers say about pdfFiller
See for yourself by reading reviews on the most popular resources:
PDFfiller came in very handy, especially with the ability to fax. Recently, I had to complete documents on behalf of my mother after my father passed away. I was limited because she had no internet, so I purchased a portable MIFI and once I realized that I could fax with PDFfiller, this eliminated the need to spend money on faxing & postage.

Very self explanatory and easy to use. Also being able to save my work in word is very helpful. Easy to save, send and print. Second year using this website and worth the small price.

It is very good for the most part; however, the pop-ups are very distracting. Also, when filling up a table with numbers, is is hard to line them up.

pdfFiller has wonderful support. You can email them or use a chat feature. From the chat feature, I was able to do a remote session through zoom to get my issues resolved quickly. Through email they always respond within 20 minutes. Great customer service!

The PDF filler is amazing
The PDF filler is amazing. It has solved me in so many situations since being in isolation due to the fact that I do not have a printer. So easy to use. The only feedback is the date component is fiddly and doesn't always work but other than that - perfect.

Can grep search PDF files?
Grep is a powerful tool to search for a pattern or regular expression in a text file but it cannot do the search in pdf files and that's where pdfgrep comes into the picture.
What is the command to search in a PDF file in Linux?
The pdfgrep command in Linux is used to filter searches for a particular pattern of characters in a PDF or multiple PDFs. It is one of the most used Linux utility commands to display the lines that contain the pattern that we are trying to search.
How do I search for specific PDF files?
Open the Google website in your browser and add the phrase “filetype: pdf” before writing your search phrase. Even it is possible to write the search term in the Google search bar and then add the word “PDF.” That's all to do.
Can you use grep to search for files?
Using grep, you can quickly find text matching a regular expression in a single file, a group of files, or text coming from stdin. Searching for patterns of text in files or text streams is one of the most common tasks you'll perform in your sysadmin career.
Why can't I search a PDF?
Problem: Your PDFs Aren't Searchable. It may be that you can't search your PDFs because they don't have any text in them. For example, if your PDF is a scanned document, it's just a picture of a document. It doesn't have any actual text for Windows to index.
