I wanted to create 2 additional 1099s but was unable to find that option so closed and requested it be sent to IRS. Now I know I should have selected "template" but have not been able to get that to work. Made another, and no option to send to IRS

Greatest PDF Library out there
PDFFiller has one of the best PDF Libraries I have ever come across. every possible template you can think of, you can find. This site deserves every star in this rating. In all honestly this is even the first time I EVER wrote a review, but I am doing it just so the team behind this website knows that there are people who are grateful for your site, and your work. and I would like to speak for every single one of the ones who are too lazy to leave a review, but you have saved us countless hours of what would otherwise be, a lot of research to try and complete the tasks we had at hand.

Did you know?
A 77-year-old Australian has tried to find a way of converting a PDF to Word. He only uses Word at 77 years old. He also suggested that he should update his MS Office 2007 to Office 365. I have decided to do that, so now I will be able to play around with Office 365 until I am almost 78.
Filing has extracted text data from tens of thousands of PDF documents. The main problem is that PDF was never really designed as a data input format, but rather as an output format giving fine-grained control over the resulting document. At its core, the PDF format consists of a stream of instructions describing how to draw on a page. In particular, text data isn't stored as paragraphs — or even words — but as characters which are painted at certain locations on the page.
Portable document format, or PDF, is the digital equivalent to handing someone a physical piece of paper. PDFs almost always include text, but they can also feature images and hyperlinks. Attaching a PDF to a text is just another way to transition your business services to a mobile-based market.
