Use case overview
An administrator uploads a request form to pdfFiller and turns it into an online fillable form. An administrator then generates a QR-code to the request form and displays it at the university campus for students to scan with their phone or publish it on the university or school’s website. Students, parents, teachers, and professors can then fill out and sign the request remotely on any device. An administrator then receives the filled-in request and forwards the form to the corresponding department.
Benefits for education professionals include:
Saved up to 40 employee hours per month
Reduced costs for shipping and scanning documents
Eliminated document errors and lost files
Fast request management

5.0
For every outing that we go on, the boys have to fill out a permission slip. I made it fillable using pdfFiller so now parents can sign it online. If somebody forgets a permission slip, they can just send it to me electronically, they don’t have to go to the venue or whatever and I don’t have to follow up.

pdfFiller cuts down on the cost of mailing documents and eliminates the time cost of downloading, printing, scanning, and uploading documents. I save about $20 a month with pdfFiller, but when extrapolated across an entire staff, the savings would be exponentially greater.
